Ride Entry – 24th August 2009
Bike: Vela
Distance:41 miles
Sometimes you’ve got to sit up and have a rest, to remember what it’s all about. That was today’s ride, a recovery ride. A bit of a treat for working hard. So no ragged breathing, no high gear heroics, no chasing cars, just a nice easy ride in the country (except maybe the climb up out of Withnell). So I meander over to Belmont, along the road to Roddlesworth, Withnell, wheelton, Chorlton, back home via Adlington and Bolton. Not a big climb fest as such but I’d guess around 700m climbing. 19mph average. I only really put the power right down along Chorley new road when I made sure I kept in a buses slipstream, but then, that’s the law.
Tomorrow, back to the grindstone.
