Round and round Burley

This weather was just made for cycling. As long as you get out early before it gets too hot, of course. Just completed 56 miles in 196 minutes round the New Forest and back before 11:30. The views from the top of the hill past Bransgore are wonderful, Burley as very pretty, even though it's unashamedly made for the tourists and from up towards Picket Post, the views become even better. On a day like today, you can't beat it. It nearly makes up for having to cut short the morning rides just so that I get get into the office. The question is, will it be this good on 3rd September?

  1. That sounds like quite a distance in the time. I think I'm going to be playing catch up with everyone on route to Paris!

  2. There aren't any major hills on this route, just a few smaller ones. Will be different in the real thing. Hoping to try a few bigger ones this weekend.
