TRAINING RIDE 6 - St George's Day on the Wolds

Phow, that was tough! So much for thinking my bike would just glide up those hills! Even 24 gears weren't enough!

I've certainly been brought back down to earth with a bang! Actually I don't know what's worse, the speed of the descents or the torture of the climbs. And they were only very short, all be it steep.

Distance wasn't the aim today, just winding up and down the country lanes. Good job really, as I barely clocked up 30km! I've realised that times and distances covered riding around the plains of York are probably not the best preparation for what I've got ahead of me!
