I'm still in ..... 6 down, 6 to go. June over and done with.
Did the Severn Bridge loop with @Dark46 today, bigging it up with a few extra miles down the lanes near Frampton on Severn near the end. 104.1 km (64.7 miles) in the end, and much the easiest of my 6 Challenge rides so far this year.. No strava or anything like that, just our reports in "Your Ride Today" and this photo:
