5th July 2009 (Sunday)

Got up, showered and changed straight into cycling gear ready to go out with the cycling club for the second time :-)

After milling around for a while I set of at 9am to meet up with them all at the 'Herman Miller' roundabout for a 9:30 start. (The Camera broke last week so I havent taken any pictures - A replacement should turn up this week...)

The ride was really enjoyable again....We cycled to Bratton, had a nice cup of tea/coffee and the cycle back, a round trip of 45 miles (For me...including the ride to the start point and the return home after).

The cycle computer had the ride as 45.38 miles in 3 hours with an average speed of 15 mph.

The GPS track can be found here...

I have found the club rides really good as they have been avoiding busy roads, although cycling to Bratton without cycling up the white horse did seem a bit of a let down.....

I have decided to have a go at the cycle club time trial on Wednesday, I was advised against it as it is 'Hilly', but I am used to hills :-)

I have also entered an Audax event.....'West Bay and Back'. If I get on with it I think I may join the Audax UK club and do 1 a month.....I really fancy doing the Dragon ride next June :-)

I am not sure where this is all heading.....I like touring, I want to Time Trial, I want to have a go at Audax/Sportive. What about racing?????
