18 mile ride this morning around Tintern, its f**king hard work going up some of the hills. Pays off once your up the top and flying down the other side :evil: :cool:

Done 28 miles last Sunday, that was tough so todays felt like a breeze. Don't get much flat land around here so your either climbing or descending.
