I seem to be doing a bit more running lately than cycling, but today I did do another local ride and tackled 3 hills again. This time I did the infamous 17% East Hall Hill which made me puff, back down Wierton and then up Loddington Hill. So far so good, a lovely sunny and still day so I went back down Linton Hill and then up Vanity Lane hill. I have to admit that I did stop a couple of times on the hill to take some photos. Just 20 miles today but almost 1500 ft of climbing, so a good workout.
The ride took my mind of the troubles for a while. Very little traffic and hardly anybody about. I had no problem with Social Distancing. In the evening I spoke to Stuart, he is 47 today, family is coping well so fingers crossed we all keep well.
Legend has it that this was the Grand Old Duke of York hill. I am half way up and half way down!
