quick trip around the block

This cycling lark has certainly caught hold of me. Deciding to call round for a quick chat with my aunt Sylvia in Ahoghill tonight, I actually forewent (is that a real word?) the car in favour of ye olde bicycle. Knowing that it wasn't going to be a 35 mile epic I pushed on harder than usual.

And so it came to pass, that a cup of tea and very fine lemon cake later, that I made it back to 9 Woodlands in 1 hour 13 minutes. Distance? 28.56 km (17.85 miles). And to top it all off...an average speed of 21 kph in a headwind. Total km on the odometer - 429.9 km (269 miles).
