Hello gang! As you know , I mostly do short rides of between 20 and 30 miles with the occasional longer ride when the mood takes me. What I really want to tell you is what gives me a kick on my rides. On the cyclepath to Rhyl, there is a short but steep gradient both ways ( maybe up to 100 metres only). Very often I see youngsters walking it although they usually have mountain bikes with better climbing gears than my road bike. I really get satisfaction to ride it and pass them pushing their bikes and puffing, and I am 50 years + older than them!! ^_^
Obviously, I wouldn't be able to keep up with @Mo1959 but then again, she is a proper cyclist.:rolleyes:
Not feeling like a proper cyclist the last three or four days. My back has been bothering me and my legs have been deader than a Dodo. Going to have a few days off.

You'll be going back on the turbo?

Good morning fellow retirees,

Another sunny day ahead,🌞 not a lot planned for today but need to get back into my stretching routine as I had a sciatic twinge yesterday which tells me I'm spending too long sitting on my arse, and not enough moving around.
Cycle to the Park on the Brommies this evening to meet daughter and granddaughter. We'll feed the ducks and play on the swings ( I pretend it's to encourage her but I'm still a big kid)

Have a lovely peaceful day folks 🚶🏃🏊‍♂️🚴‍♀️
