Your ride today.... (part 1)

[defy-one]

Did a lazy 20 miler today on the triban. Lovely weather for a bike ride. 3 months ago the thought of a 7 mile trip to dads made me smile. Now a 15 miler is nothing. Next target is 25 miles

Paducca bike shop for me yesterday to get a new cassette and chain...3000+ miles in 6 weeks up these American ' hills' has took its toll it seems!

Lead my 1st club ride today. I think it went alright, everyone got there and back safely anyway. Steady intro ride out to Tatton park and back. Bumped into Ed Clancy at the cafe at the end too

Just 11.11 miles today, with a few stops for some grocery shopping, assisting with a marine salvage operation, surveying a repair for future attention, had some social chitchat, got some fresh air and exercise, so altogether an enjoyable afternoon cycle run in the , and finshed with a following wind on the home straight.

I did 31 miles mostly on country lanes

50 hot n sunny miles, made less glorious by a puncture and then getting bitten by a horse fly. Not usually a problem, but this one must have been rabid or something as I'm now sporting a see-it-from-space swelling on my leg

70 odd miles today for me. Met Mr 400bhp at Ashley then rode down to Nantwich Marina. Back the same way nice ride, warm and no rain. Only downside was my Garmin decided to miss plot were I was, despite being ok on elapsed time and distance. The only consequence of this was that my attempt at a few Strava segments became straight interval traing with no reward at the end.

72 for me today including the 26 to and from the club start finish point. Good fun but got crampy quads after fighting to stay with the peloton on the new forest climbs. Ave 18.5 for me round trip, still getting used to that kind of pace

29.10 miles but I carried on down the road,past my turning and back again to make it thirty!.....and it was very hot(30c)

 

[Andrew_Culture]

Just up and down my road getting the height on SS FrankenFreak right and hoping selling my tourer today wasn't the terrible mistake that it currently feels like it was.

I now have a 20+kg bso MTB and a single speed to get me by till I can afford a road bike. I'm seriously considering taking up out LBS finance offer, but we never do finance :/

A gentle 60 miles through scoggy lanes north of Dartmoor with a visiting friend. She made the route and we rode on lanes I've never used before (possibly with good reason). Not having mudguards was a mistake on my part.

A slow 53miles for me today, a couple of trips to a local supermarket (10 miles), then I went for an exploring ride round the west of Peterborough and Northamptonshire for 38miles or so and when I got back I decided I fancied some biscuits so I made another 5 mile trip to another local supermarket.
