Yesterday saw another fab day of sunshine and I had arranged to go for a ride with Agent Alex in the afternoon. Beth wasn't sure if she would make it as the pub was busy at lunchtime and she thought she might be brewing a sore throat. Alex and I really impressed Trusty and Coach (sound like a comedy act, right?) who had just arrived back from LeMans. We were all geared up ready to go and I called next door to see if Beth was coming out to play. She hadn't really thought she would but didn't take a lot of persuading to go from this:
To this:
And unbeknownst (if there is such a word) to us Trusty and Coach drove ahead of us and sneakily took photos - I hope they weren't just checking up on us? So this is what we look like from behind! Well it would except I can't work out how to post it on here and rotate it. I don't want you to think we cycle vertically so I will add it another time when I have it sussed!
The ride was lovely though I am struggling more than my team mates with the hills. Still chesty after the cough thing but getting there. Luckily I have patient pals and I do speed up a bit on the flat! Alex nearly ran over a baby rabbit which was about the most dangerous part of the ride.
We covered 19miles in just over an hour and a half at a speed of 12.1miles per hour.
