5th August: 31.46 miles - First decent length ride returning after a (partially) enforced layoff. Some difficulty finding a suitable route given lots of roadworks and resurfacing closing roads - https://www.strava.com/activities/15356048611 - 1 point
9th August: 33.37 miles - Best cure for tiredness? Climb to the highest point in your county! Very breezy and yet very warm, quite an odd combination of conditions to ride in - https://www.strava.com/activities/15401295695 - 1 point
