A great a ride yesterday on the bike. I rode for 2 and ahalf hours and made an average distance of 30 miles. I think it may have been more. I don;t have a spedometer on my bike, so I just use an overall time and I make a good guess at the distance. It was a great ride though. I made the treck to Balynahinch, and then out to Dromara, then up the Mountain to the Windy Gap on top of Slieve croob, then down to Castlewellan and home!! Whew! Yes it was hilly and yest this morning I am feeling pretty beat, and ready for a cycling rest today. I am off to work at our new place, so that should keep me busy today. It was another bench mark for me, making the loop that I thought was surely too far for me. BUt the climbs were steady and the legs felt strong, so I just used the gears and kept moving and found myself home again and in once piece. I tell you I am very impressed with myself, and at this rate I think I am going to do a race this April! Don;t quote me, but I think it could happen. The weight is coming off too, another pound, but I am not goinig to get excited until I drop to below 18 stone. Sitting at 18 stone 4 pounds as of this morning. Not too far, and within my grasp.
