Well that was a tough challenge.....
Didnt have a steel mtb and took ages deliberating over which one to get. Took it home, got it road ready and off i went. Out the gate, headed north. Bugger, that took me back into the garden and down the back lane. Gardens only 40mtrs long and fenced all around. Trying to do 178 milee in there while dressed all in black was sending my dog nuts.......but i managed it and i'm here to tell the tale.
Wonder what i'll do today
