24 Little hours...In the immortal words of Ester Phillips - today was a fan-bloody-tastic day. Planned a combination route around Shrewsbury & Telford - 75 miles in all. Feeling really good compared to yesterday, I was on the road at 10.00 a.m. the early mist just being burnt off as the sun broke thru' . Much more in the legs today which makes a huge difference to the enjoyment as mile after mile rolled by. Stopped to take a couple of photo's along the route & enjoyed an ice cream in Ironbridge. Didn't tackle Coalport bank today but opted for the less severe cinder track climb up to Blists Hill [with the risk of a puncture].
4 hours 27 minutes total ride time - very pleased with today's result - fitness levels & recovery excellent - I think today was as good as it gets - it really was that good.
Looking forward to next weeks ride to Barmouth with my L2P cycling buddy Mike.
