OK, I have been meaning to do this for quite a while but between other projects (my iOS blog) and general apathy, I have never got around to it until now. As I explained in the description and about me, I am a middle aged teacher with an unhealthy ICT obsession and an equally unhealthy cycling obsession. I intend this blog to be a selection of random thoughts and musings as I cycle my way around various parts of the country.
I tend to do mainly Audax rides these days as time for training is limited and to be honest, I just feel a little too fragile for racing these days. I do attempt the occasional Sportive ride but really, I like the idea of Audax and really want to get up to the sort of distances that would allow me to dream of London-Edinburgh-London or Paris-Brest-Paris. Having said that, at the moment, the thought of a 300k gets the goose bumps going although I did comfortable complete one 200k Sportive (The Black Rat) and two 200k Audaxes and one 150k Audax last year as well as innumerable 100k rides so maybe its not that far off?
Anyway, the season is starting, the GPS is fully charged (me and maps do not make for a straightforward journey) and events have been entered so please watch this space. The rides (GPX and mapmyride links) will be written about here and posted on my website. Enjoy.
