January: 4 rides, 5 points
February: 2 rides, 3 points
March: 4 rides, 8 points
13th April: 67.56 miles - A ride down to Dorchester on Thames and back, where I was either too hot when the sun was out, or too cold when it wasn't - seemingly had to stop every five miles to remove/add layers, which grew quite tiresome - https://www.strava.com/activities/2287014530 - 3 points
19th April: 74.76 miles - Gorgeous weather for a long ride along one of my flatter routes out westward. Extended as far as Heyford and Kidlington for the first time - https://www.strava.com/activities/2302304550 - 3 points
21st April: 31.42 miles - Finally managed to climb the classic Chilterns climb of Lodge Hill from the more difficult (Butlers Cross) direction without stopping, rather than my usual (easier) route up via Chequers - https://www.strava.com/activities/2307185934 - 1 point
28th April: 31.42 miles - Exactly the same distance seven days later, albeit a very different route! This time round climbed The Hale, but didn't have time for much more unfortunately - https://www.strava.com/activities/2325868458 - 1 point
