Cycle Challenge Update

May 23, 2011 by Clive Leave a Comment

My cycle challenge for 2011 is to cycle 1200 miles and, after the last few weekends, I’ve now caught up with the target of 100 miles/month. As of today, I’ve done 502 miles. Hurrah!

In recent weeks, I’ve cycled a 100 mile trip to Chichester and, last Saturday, cycled a 30 mile circular route near Horsham that included a mixture of roads and a few new bridleways. Together with some training rides, this has meant a total of 290 miles in April and May. Mind you, I’m fully expecting my mileage to dip at the end of the year as winter starts so I’d better make the most of it now!

Anyway, I’m pretty pleased with progress to this point. Here’s to a great summer of cycling!
