After a few months of building up my miles and stamina I took the plunge today and met up with my local club - Plomesgate CC. It seemed to be a hybrid of Plomesgate riders and Wolsey Road Club. I opted for the slower ride thinking the others looked a bit too lean, mean and keen. I might have lost 12 kilos since returning to cycling but I've got plenty more to shed and the fast group, well, looked like they'd live up to their name!
That said, the slow group didn't hang about. It was a great ride along beautiful Suffolk roads with the sun shining throughout. But a keen SW wind kept reminding me that this was 'training' and not a nature ramble! I completed 44 miles, which is the longest I've done since beginning my come-back. My legs were tired but my head was buzzing. I really enjoyed it and already looking forward to doing it again.
