NO, no, no!
"15 miles of great cycling, and the whole way full of walkers, boaters, fishermen and bike riders. It really felt good to be alive. Ended up with a slightly sore b*m and blisters on the heels of both hands"
That is cycling for you! Do NOT go on. Next time it will be raining, wind will be against you all day -even if you ride a circular loop.
Go to the pub, play chess with a friend next to the fire place.
Or come down to Kent with me on 4.9. to do the 12 h time trial.
I stopped a couple of guys some years ago -they wore really silly, old fashioned jerseys, looked woolly to me- on their ride. Thornton Road Cyclist they were. Been riding with them on and off for about 4 years now. There is a fast ride, a "nice" ride and a social ride, very VERY slow including at least one pub stopon the road.
You could do the same, as soon as you see a rider, talk to him and ask about the rides.
And remeber
warned you!
