My second 40+ mile cycle of 2019!

Well done me! I’ve just done my second 40+ mile cycle of 2019. This time, I did 45.55 miles. Would have been nice to do 50 miles, but it was starting to get dark and I only had my back lights with me!

Of course, during this cycle, I did even more Geocaching. I’ve now found 330 in total! 🙂

You can check out the route, I took over at www.strava.com/activities/2300150489
