I like to cycle

I like cycling.... there we go! I did it.

I do not feel  fit enough to claim big rides however this week I rode 22 miles along the strawberry line. Cheddar to Yatton.... and back. I also rode up Cheddar gorge, to the very top.

I must admit I was helped along the way.

My confidence in riding is improving and soon enough I know I will ride something fully human powered.... up the gorge! Wish me luck. 

One  step (or pedal) at a time.

The short climb coming out of axbridge and going over the bridge in Sandford were the only moments I changed the assistance on the ebike from green to orange... (there are 4 levels white no assistance, green, orange and red full ...
