1,000 miles of cycling at long last!!

That’s me just 1,000 miles of cycling at long last, during 2022! Still, way behind on this point last year, when had done 2,228 miles. Still hoping, I will end the year on at 1,800 miles!

You can check out the route at www.strava.com/activities/7603824539

Oh and it was around 26C during the cycle, so my Lycra was getting nice & sweaty! 😈
