17th June

Great ride today – dodged the morning rain and late afternoon gloom for a lovely ride to Seaside, Oregon. 

39 miles, 1600 feet of climbing and the Pacific Ocean – quite a view!


My fellow riders are starting to arrive – some really nice and interesting people which is exciting. Despite a couple of great rides with my friend Charlie most of my training has been solo and I am now completely bored of cycling on my own. I am really looking forward to cycling in a group and working as a team.

The big day is coming…..
