Spring is coming... (about time too!)

It's Thursday which means it's ride day yippeee!!

Woke up at 8am this morning, looked out of the window to see dull grey sky and blustery gusts of wind blowing the tops of the trees opposite... decided to spend an extra hour in bed and do a shorter ride than originally planned...

However, by the time I did go out (at 11am) the wind had subsided and the day was looking brighter by the minute... I started embarking on a 35 mile ride (Ye Olde Yew Tree route) but the day turned out so nice I extended to the Alcester route... 45 miles covered - hurrah! :)

No cake stop today as was riding solo.

Today's fuel:
SIS Blueberry Go Bar
Approx 5 jelly babies
1 litre weak blackcurrant SIS Go electrolyte / water mix.

Saved the banana in my back pocket for a recovery peanut butter and banana sarnie upon my return.

I have recently joined a 'Look at my bike leaning against stuff' group on Facebook so took the opportunity to photograph my bike against the Purity Brewery sign that I've rode past millions of times.



All in all, a lovely day for a ride and felt like the first signs of Spring is in the air.
