... I finally get back out on the bike. Weather has been naff, if it's not raining then it's windy enough to blow you off your bike. Haven't even managed one commute to work since I last posted.
So yesterday, took a ride out to Stratford and back. First thought was... "damn, wish I hadn't had that bacon & egg sarnie before I came out"; felt a tad sick for the first half hour heehee.
It wasn't as many miles as I thought, I thought I would clock at least 45 if not 50 but only managed 38. I didn't actually go all the way into Stratford town centre, but that probably would have only made 4 mile difference. There was a couple of women on my way out, sitting on the grass verge at the top of the hill out of Henley. They looked knackered, had obviously stopped for a rest, and smiled at me knowingly... i.e. they knew I was coming back that way and would have to tackle the same hill. It is a bit of blip on the landscape but I didn't need a rest at the top. I've gone past that point now, and it's a nice feeling (",).
Got into work today and John C said that he saw me on my bike! O No... bang goes my glamour girl image! (".)
