Finally! 25 miles

Finally! 25 miles - now 35!

Finally beat my 17 mile bogey and did my first twenty five miler today. Very happy to have no knee problems! Was a great ride apart from my decision to do 6 miles of the transpennine way which turned out to be a sludgefest, unclipped me feet and rode slowly. My tyres aren't really designed for crap that deep!

Nice one Chris .good to hear that the knees are ok.

I would say that 25 miles on a heavy hybrid is like 40 on a road bike but not if you like mud riding :-).

 

[Chrisc]

Thanks All,
Got a nice beer cooling in the fridge now! Really enjoyed it today and as you say, great sense of achievement.
I don't enjoy the mud Banjo, used to when I rode moto cross but not under my own steam!! My road mudguards didn't take long to clog up and make it that bit harder...

Congrats mate, its good to come through a mile stone, means the next one can be a little bit more, maybe set it for a 30 miler,

 

[Mark_Robson]

Congrats, the sense of achievement far outweighs the pain and it can only get easier :-)
