About Me

My photo
Whether it's five miles or five hundred miles, riding a bicycle is more fun than anyone ever told me! My New Year's Resolution to cycle 10 miles a day or 40 minutes on a spin bike has meant that by the end of May I have cycled 2,600 miles! Because of my cycling wardrobe the weather has not stopped me from cycling (unless it really is -5 degrees or with wind gusts of 25 mph). Cycling in style and in comfort is really important to me as I don't really want to be covered in logos looking like a Ninja as I buy groceries or attend meetings. I have found some things that work for me but am always looking for new pieces. For me, Evans Cycles and Cycle Surgery for the basics. My two favourite brands for my wardrobe are www.velorution.com and www.velovixen.com but I am always looking for new pieces. I would love to know what works for you and why. Happy cycling!

Mice Log 46.

Friday 15th Feb. 17.5 miles in 2 hours with a max speed of 18.1.  A Trip to SE1 and to W8 for Afternoon Tea! 

The early bird catches a whole load of cyclists on a Cycling Superhighway!  Up early to be in SE1 for 8.15.  It was cold but the sky was beautifully clear.  Haring along the blue paint being overtaken and undertaken by a whole range of different types of bicycles and cyclists was exciting and startling at the same time.

Spent some time in SE1 cycling with others, down to The Tate Modern and around Southwark.  Looking across to the City skyline from south of the river is always amazing - any time of day any time of year.  

In the afternoon I headed across to Hyde Park Corner where the Cavalry were making their way into Hyde Park.  So dignified an elegant.  Smart phones come into their own as practically everyone near me was taking their photographs.



My journey continued along Rotten Row, into Kensington Palace Gardens and down Millionaires Row to meet up with friends for Tea and Cakes in The Whole Food Store, High Street Ken.  Fab!
