I’ve updated my spreadsheet and my biannual cycling mileage totals are:
2008 (H2) = 1600 miles
2009 (H1) = 1100 miles
2009 (H2) = 1400 miles
2010 (H1) = 1500 miles
2010 (H2) = 3500 miles
2011 (H1) = 3700 miles
2011 (H2) = 3600 miles
So I’m doing around 7000 miles per year on my bicycle rather than in a car, saving me a fortune!
See last post about this here
This morning I looked out onto the back garden and couldn’t even see the mess that I call my lawn, or the path to my “bike” shed
So I went out with a view of assessing whether it was suitable for commuting to work, it didn’t look good to start with
A closer look it wasn’t that deep
The garden dwellers weren’t happy either
Anyway, I decided I’d go for it and I wasn’t on my own either
My road was pretty virgin snow as nobody uses it, I failed to take a photo, I was having too much fun.
Busier side roads were more passable
The main roads were clear more or less and I arrived safely and happy I’d braved it and not resorted to using the car
(shame about that one, the lens must have misted up on my phone)
I’m looking forward to the Friday night ride home now, ride safe, have fun.
