Sunday's Ride


Hi All!


Set out today at 8:40am. Did 17.9k - kept up same speed as I did for the 14.5k time trial so not too bad.


Learned several things:


1) Car drivers just don't see bikers. Need to cycle keeping this in mind - the woman who opened her door gave us both a shock!

2) Forget being polite - staying to the left to allow drivers to pass easier only drives me into the sidewalk!

3) Came up with a few more ideas for fundraising on my cycle round.

4) Cyclists nod at each other - I shout a cheery good morning, startling them all! Trying to get my nod down, but was not successful even once!!


Watched the rowers at the Swanage Sea Rowing Club out on the Dancing Ledge boat. Very nice!!
