I'm back and very displeased with my fitness! Went up a (big) hill and had to stop about 6 times to get my breath back! Took some pics with my phone (that I was surfing on, too).
Tea shop garden.
Sheeps next door, all lying down in the sun, unfortunately!
Big hill that I couldn't get up! It is around a mile of uphill, though and I've not been back in the saddle very long. Best bit is that it's 1½ miles back down the other side at 40-50mph, so worth the slog!
This is what is at the top.
It's a big un and here's a pic of the bike next to his ear for scale.
...and the view from the top. Sorry it's a bit hazy, it was the weather not me camera! The road down in the valley is where you start/finish.
