But did you lose the 6 stone? ;-) Seriously, that is not a bad achievement at all, especially as you've effectively only been cycling for two years. -- Paul Boyd http://www.paul-boyd.co.uk/ |

I have done that - but it was not part of my day total ride. When I did the 70 miles Easter 2007 I did the other 57 the following day. As I am at work during the day too it is sometimes difficult. I did the 82 on Sunday, I did 22 on Monday evening then 19 last night. I will not have any more time until Saturday or Sunday again though. Dave |
