Feeling Good

[shades.5]

Been cycling just 5 weeks and yesterday completed my first 100 miler on my new hybrid bike and am feeling rather good about it , with a few aches and pains too

Good on ya, shades! Well done.

You'll soon move on from the sprints and be doing the long distances!

Well done - how did the ride go - did some of the advice help.

How long did it take ?

Well done.

i salute you sir ; two months for me and i just managed the great north ride....aye, the good feeling inspires you for the next goal doesnt it. i was thinking, did abseil in 2007 (terrifying) and would like to skydive one day (never seem to stay under 14 stone long enough though, think thats the limit) anyway, could i combine this with my newfound love of cycling? ride a bike out of a plane ?
bear in mind when i was a lad evel knievel was the idol/idiot of the day...i rode my bike off a big sand dune only to discover i did not in fact glide through the air. no, gravity + weight of bike + altitude = boy with sore bones.
