A nice long (for me) ride today

[cyana13]

I have managed today to go on a trip of 19 miles across South London. My total is 79 miles.
I have improved my riding in traffic skills as well and I have only fallen once (clipless pedals - 3rd time since I started using them) into my boyfriend's bike, managing to buckle his back wheel.
I have improved my speed average as well. My boyfriend was quite impressed with me until I messed up his wheel.
Anyway, I am improving my style. Just thought it would be nice to share this.

Things happen! Just be glad you're enjoying the cycling and that you and your boyfriend have not only each other, but a hobby that you'll take many years of pleasure in (he'll get over the wheel!!!)

It's an awesome feeling when you start covering those distances that seemed daunting when you started. Wait until summer (if it happens this year) and you'll be riding around all day

Looking forward to longer rides. I am also started commuting to work ( 6 miles each way) during the week to gain more strength .
