Your ride today.... (part 1)

[guitarpete247]

Wanted to go to one of the 2 Aldi's close to us. 18.8 miles in just under 2 hours. Came back with winter shirt, 4 pints of milk and 2.5 Kg of spuds, so bike a little heavier coming back. Went on MTB which is heavy anyway .

A few miles scoffing at the headwind, turned for the ride home and found it was a tailwind...

Just under 26miles today. My furthest yet and only been cycling properly for 4 weeks nearly. Never realised how hilly the area was around bradgate park in the car lol!

Only minor incident I had was near home on the return journey a car passed close then decided to use a hand gesture to call me a w*nker in the rear view for his impatience, oh and a bit of headwinds.

All in all a good journey, although everytime I get home from a longer ride I just want to get back out and do more miles lol!

41.5 early morning miles out through Wetherby, skirted Knaresborough and came back via Cattal, Boston Spa and Thorner. Dark when I set off and surprisingly not as cold as I thought it was going to be.

One way relishing the tailwind on the way home, only to discover on turning around that I'd already used up my tailwind credits

I've managed to get and do rides 3 days in a row. Unusual for me. A 29 miler on Thursday afternoon round the Cardington area, a 20 miler over to Minsterley and Pontesbury yesterday and a 31 miler round Cardington again today (slightly different route).

I tweaked the Charge Spoon a bit on todays ride and thought I'd finally found the right setting, but no. After 20 miles the saddle was becoming decidedly firm and after 28 my right foot and (ahem) other places were going numb. Oh well, back to the nose down setting.

18.5 miles today with the trailer. Went along the Brampton Valley Way up to the first tunnel then turned round and back to the car to get the little one home for dinner.http://app.strava.com/rides/23475432
Noticed there were lots of other cyclists that didn't even acknowledge me today (and of course loads that were more than pleasant), can never understand why they can't even nod, miserable feckers.

I was out with the PCC Early Birds this morning. It was a good run, in good weather and with good company
