Thursday 8.6 mile Bike Ride




At last i have managed to buy a new bike to replace my aging steel framed mountain bike which means at last i can use the brakes without fear of frightening any horse riders on the route by the terrible squealing noise of the well worn brakes and gears

A New specialized Rockhopper Disc was bought in a fit of madness and boy has this turned out to be a very much superior bike , which practically weighs next to nothing

For my first test i did my old training route around the linacre circle going at a good steady pace which resulted in an under 1 hour time

Time Taken 59mins
Max Heart Rate162
Average Heart Rate144
Length 8.6 miles
Height ascended 289 metres
