Week 11 (w/e 17 March 2013)
Miles: 126.5
Monday was bitterly cold with frequent light flurries of snow swirling around in the air. Despite this, I got out for 13 miles in the afternoon. I didn't bother venturing out again in the evening because it was literally freezing. In contrast, Tuesday was sunny and it felt warm. An hour's cycling in the afternoon took me to 28.5 miles and this became 36.5 miles once I'd nipped back out that evening. Wednesday was again clear and sunny. An hour in the afternoon pushed me on to 51 miles. A trip into the countryside that evening saw the day out with 59 miles, but it was bitterly cold. My fingers suffered very much.
Rain moved in on Thursday and eventually called time on any hopes of play. It was raining again on Friday morning but the afternoon cleared up so I took myself out for the best part of an hour, rolling home with 74 miles. There was drizzle around in the evening but I went out anyway and finished with 82 miles. Saturday was overcast but fine. I cycled into town in the afternoon. After coming home, I dashed out again for half an hour and thus advanced to 98 miles. Light rain moved in on Saturday evening, but I went to the pub anyway. Sunday was grey with occasional drizzle. I dragged myself out for a slightly longer than usual ride in the late afternoon, coming back with 118 miles in the bag. I nipped back out later in the evening under clear skies and so ended the week with 126.
