Well that was “fun” 18.13 mile cycle before work! It was fun, since somehow the Regulation Piped Locking Leather Collar and Clejuso handcuffs ended up in bag! Which of course, ended up being locked on me! 😈
The route, I took can be found at www.strava.com/activities/7393347712
Going by my VeloViewer Infographic, I’ve had 179 active days so far in 2022! Which means, I’ve done at least one cycle or walk each day so far this year!
That’s me now done a total distance of 1,225 miles this year. Which is made up 565 miles of cycling and 660 miles on walking!!
Pleased that at long last, my max cycling distance has jumped from 33 miles up to 42 miles. Also my max ride elevation has gone from 1,381 feet to 1,670 feet.
Now the next big job, is getting my cycling miles to overtake my walking ones…
Where it says running… That’s my walking data!
So, so pleased with myself! Just did my first 40+ mile cycle of 2022! Just wish, I had not been so windy! Now Of course, now I need to aim for 50+ mile cycle!
It was also great cycling around Rutland Water…. Not sure, when I last did it! I know, I walked around it, last year…

WOW! Where does the time go? That’s me now been a Customer Delivery Driver at Tesco for whole year!
When I got made redundant from the Peterborough Greyhounds, at time I was very upset about it! Now looking back at, it’s was for the best!
Then worked at Morrisons in Peterborough for three months. Where I got use to driving the vans… Then they left me go, along with a number of others… But that give me time, to find out that I could do another job… And was loving it!
So when I got a job offer at Tesco doing the same thing… But which was way, way closer to home and got fixed hours each week. I could not say no!
Now a year later, still doing the same job! Doing at least 30 to 45 hours each week! And loving every minute of it!!
About time, I got back in Lycra and the Clejuso handcuffs! P.S. You have to thank one of HOT straight mates for reminding me to start doing more bondage stuff again!
