“Training”

As the ride gets closer we are starting to think how our legs will go cycling every day so take every opportunity to get out on the bikes

We went to Wales for a family get together over Easter, it deluged but we managed to get out on a couple of days- essential after too much eating, riding around the West side of Conwy Valley- they have very steep hills! The steepest was 20%, we have to admit to pushing up hill at one stage but the rest of the ride was fantastic with views over to the snow still lying on the higher mountains

Martin was out with the Spire club again yesterday- good training except that there are always a couple of cafe stops- including lunch at the legendary cyclists cafe at Cromford- glad that it has resurfaced after a change of ownership
