Posted on 2010/05/02. Filed under: Cycling | Tags: , , , , , , , , , |

Yesterday I did my first ‘get the train somewhere and cycle back’ ride since I moved to Cambridge, from Whittlesea (last stop before Peterborough, so avoiding urban roads) to Milton (village on the north edge of Cambridge with a nice cafe, always good to end rides at).  The route is here, on Garmin Connect.  Planning [...]

Brief, but pleasing

Posted on 2009/11/08. Filed under: Cycling | Tags: , , , |

Only 40km, I had been hoping to do progresively longer trips on Sundays but this week I’m glad to be at 40km still.  So I did Fen Ditton – Horningsea – Waterbeach – Landbeach – Cottenham – Westwick – Oakington – Histon – Impington – Milton – Waterbeach – Horningsea – Fen Ditton.  Bad timing [...]
