Enjoying Cycling and Scenary

autumn

- It’s good to have time to  stop and admire scenary. I took this photo with a simple point and shoot Panasonic, and was pleased at how well it came out.

After spending past couple of months throwing myself up steep hills almost to the point of passing out, it has been nice to take a break from interval training and get back to a more traditional form of cycling – cycling for the pleasure of it. This autumn has been particularly good, with the autumn colour lasting for a few weeks.

Yesterday I rode 70 miles to Shipton Under Wychwood on the border of the Cotswolds. It’s the longest distance I’ve ridden for quite a while. The end of the season has given me one of the biggest mileages this year, as I don’t have to worry about having too many miles in the legs for the next race.

    Fantastic scenery, and the weather looks like it was very kind to you.
