It seems like AGES since I had a ‘real’ ride and I was itching, to say the least, to get going. What can I say – I really like riding… I was planning to have a ride on the 1st of January (seemed a good way to start the new year) but I did not feel too well on Thursday so decided to have a day rest. On Saturday I was as good as new (+/- 50 years) and off I went.
I (obviously) used my Fixed bike for that journey and did not regret it. I carefully counted the number of times I had to walk up hill (4) with the clear intention to try and reduce it if I possibly could. It was COLLLLLLLLLD – no more than 5C (sorry I know F all about F temp), and even though the sun WAS shining throughout there was no warmth in it.
I don’t think I broke any speed records but I do think I managed it in decent time. Looking forwards to my next one
