24th May 2009 solo to Lutterworth & back!


No sportive this weekend, so after some short rides in the week I set off early for Lutterworth

Back in 2004 Sam & I cycled 100 miles up & around the top of Leicester & back in three days to raise money for his Kilomanjaro trip. The last day we 'bombed' back from Lutterworth - for some time I had wanted to do the journey again. Here was my chance but this time both ways!

Warm I sunny I sped west through Rothwell past sibbertoft making the roundabout (near the golf Club and with the jet plane) in good time. I returned along the 2004 route, south past Kilworth Springs GC and home.
51.3m 3h 19m at a faster 15.7mph.

My legs are feeling stronger, and the confidence is increasing.
