Mon 20th July

Road

Circular route taking in Long Eaton - Sawley - Castle Donington - Melbourne - Ticknall - Milton - Repton - Willington - Hilton - Etwall - Willington - Barrow upon Trent - Weston on Trent - Aston on Trent - Shardlow - Sawley - Long Eaton.

Distance = 47.9 miles
Time = 2 hrs 52 mins
Ave Speed = 16.9 mph
Top Speed = 33.0 mph
Weather = Sunny Spells, dry, 19c

MTB = 547.6
Road Bike = 145.6
Total Milage = 693.3

Great ride, bit hilly in the first 18 miles but then pretty flat, and with the wind behind for the last 18 miles the ride home was in TT mode, streched the legs well.

The pace today would have just squeezed 50 miles in 3 hours, considering a little over a month ago I was hoping to do that distance in 4.5 hours, and managed it in 3, 3/4 hrs I'm quite impressed with my progress.

As ever view my ride on Bikely
