cycle route Cycling No Comments

Well pleased with myself. Just done my first half century (50 miles) cycle of the year. I was not planning to when I set off. But someone twitter give me the idea! I was going to be happy with 40 miles. Pleased I did it, means I have beating the longest cycle I did in February last year. Which was 44.28 miles.

I will now leave you with the route map and route statistics. No elevation graph like normal due to the GPS playing up.

Another day, yet another good cycle. I have no idea how I did this. I did 33.76 miles yesterday. Did a different route today and did the same distance (33.76 miles). I don’t think I could do that again, even if I wanted to. During this cycle, it’s also the first time, I have cycled to Grantham this year. The first times of many, I am sure!

I will now leave you with the route map, elevation graph and route statistics.

Driving No Comments

I am so happy today. At 9:30am in the George Shopping Centre in Grantham. I had my third go at doing the car theory test and your never guess what. I passed it. Third time lucky. I got 34 out of 35 for the multiple-choice section. Meaning that I passed that section, by 4 marks.

I got 58 marks for the hazard perception section. You need 44 to pass it. Meaning that I passed it by 14 marks. So I am one very, very happy boy. Not only did I pass it, but I pass it with flying colours.

So now at long last I can get my practical driving test booked. I just hope that is does not take me three attempts to pass that as well.
