Your ride today.... (part 1)

[Mike Warren]

A leisurely 20 mile ride in the sunshine along the Northumberland coast. Lots of people about but with schools going back tomorrow things should quieten down.

Today, a leisurely 30 miles on the Whyte to Banburycestershire to get a bit of shopping and back. 'ark it me being all green and using the bike to go shopping! I'll eating lentils next.

Ten miles on any bike, can be better than 10 miles on no bike. Think how easier it will be when you get your new bike.

90 miles was the journey, raising funds for the Myton Hospice the aim, up at quarter to six out the house at seven to ride down to The Myton Hospice in Warwick, arrived at eight and got signed up to do the 60 miler. Lovely route out past the Chesterton Windmill and on though to Upper Boddington, before turning to go through Priors Marston,and on to Willoughby. Climbed up from the A45 to the water tower then turned through Barby to pick up the main road through Dunchurch, the only part of the route I wasn't keen on, turned back on to the lanes through hill and Birdingbury and on through Leamington spa to Warwick and the finish. An excellent days cycling, what can be better, country lanes warm sun on your back and raising funds for a good cause, I'm knackered but happy.

This ride, done on the 19th August, resulted in a cheque for £115 being posted off to the Myton Hospice on Saturday, made the ride feel even sweeter and more worth doing.

Quality time with my son on our mtb's. Went to drop some things off to my dad/his grandad. Round trip of 15 miles.
Really enjoyed out chats and laughs along the way

I looked at my bike warm and snug in the bike shelter, looked at the dark heavy sky then decided to go back to bed...well it wouldn't have been fair on the bike.

Did Snowdon today, and I have to say it was crap. It was too hot on the first third of the way up Llanberis trail, then when I got to the top it was freezing cold, foggy and drizzling. 1/3 riding 2/3 pushing. So I set off down the Rangers path hoping for a clear run down the hill, and low and behold I had to carry my bike down about 1/4 of the trail. The only good bit was bombing it down the Telegraph Valley trail (Maesgwm).

Just a simple 14 miles, a quick blast round town, not too fast, not slow...thoroughly enjoyable for no great reason, other than the pleasure of a nice sunny evening on the bike.

Had a test ride on a Giant Defy 1, very nice!

Just the normal commute to work and back. Well impressed that i didn't fall off skidding on the roundabout thismorning, i think clipless pedals saved me there.

Another 36:98 miles this morning, beautiful day, not a cloud in the sky this morning.
