Continuing the sorta backpack discussion had my 1st ride out on my new road bike today. No bag!
Did London to Southend, 52 occasionally challenging miles including a much hillier ride than expected, riding a new bike and getting out of London - had some charming abuse from a bloke in a 4x4 in Chigwell who seemed to forget he had a trailer/horse box attached.
That aside, was pleased to do it in 4hrs (I'm pretty slow) and the weather was v acceptable for Feb and I'd forgotten how go it feels to have a decent length, challenging ride.
Question: where are all the females out their? Saw one other female out today amongst the total roadie sausage fest.
