Managed to beat my previous weeks commuting distance today, just over 260km. My previous best was last summer all on my road bike. This week has been half road bike and half the heavy hybrid, so more of an achievement .
My final ride to day was my first proper ride out into the countryside this year, I had forgotten all those strange smells and brought some of the countryside home with me, need to wash the cowshit of my bike.
Also gave me the opportunity to ride up a proper hill, well for Wiltshire, I remember the 14% incline at the top but forgot about the 20% gradient in the middle of the climb .
Still only 1km long and definitely need more practice on it, good high intensity training as it certainly got my heart and lungs going .
