Week 14 (256lbs) | Loss -3lbs | Total Loss -16lbs

Weigh in on Sunday 6th - and 3lbs down.
Total cycle this week : 107 miles

WOW. -3lbs and broke 100 miles this week.

Did a 31 mile bike ride today (Sunday) to Brightlingsea and back. 2 hours 30 minutes. I know there are no hills like the ones I'm expecting at the Lake District - but I'm getting there.

It was quite a tough ride. A couple of short tough hills but worse there was a considerable wind going, and a worse one coming back - along with some added rain. I was pretty cold. You wouldn't think it was bloody May!

Bearing in mind we may well be cycling for between 5 and 7 hours (although we're only doing 40/50 miles a day, the hills will extend the time in the saddle) I need much more time in the saddle. As my backside is sore from sitting on the saddle for two and a half hours, I really need to at least expect to double that!
