I finally got around to doing London - Cambridge yesterday, which I have been wanting to do since last summer. It was a beautiful day and a brilliant ride. I was pretty knackered by the time I pulled into Cambridge station, with some pretty significant knee pain that has cleared up with a hot bath and a night's sleep.
I was riding 48 x 19 which comes out at just short of 19 thousand complete pedal strokes.I feel really chuffed to have done it and wanted to share with you guys :-)
Here's the maps of my route (it adds up to 97.5km, but I reckon that taking curves on the road, as opposed to the straightlines on the map will add up to that elusive 2.5k. And I had to ride home from the station..) Map1, Map2 when the pedometer app ran out of new points to add!
What now worries me is that the Dunwich is twice as far. Oh shit.
