January: 3 rides, 4 points
February: 4 rides, 8 points
7th March: 36.19 miles - Felt bitingly cold even if the thermometer had it as a few degrees above freezing. Slightly cut short original planned route but still got the new roads done that I wanted to - https://www.strava.com/activities/4907021824 - 1 point
14th March: 36.69 miles - A rather windy ride up to and around Leighton Buzzard, which is a little hillier that I remember! Also worked out why I'm having issue with changing gears; a solution though may still be a while off - https://www.strava.com/activities/4945568810 - 1 point
