My new to cycling friend has asked that I ride to Brighton with her this summer, so we've been training up.
Pootles around the local area became jaunts town, then a ride to Richmond Park and back before, this weekend, hitting Kent.
We did 30 miles with 2000ft of climbing, with her on a single speed charge plug. A few pedestrian ascents finishes but all in all she did amazingly. Huge grins came as standard.
I now feel totally sure that we'll make it to Brighton with effort to spare and that it'll be a great day. Two months more training should make it a breeze.
