ride my bike more
London freewheel 21 months ago

Rode into town for today’s London freewheel. Great fun. Embankment and the Mall had been closed to traffic, which made London a pleasure to cycle around. Cycled about 15 miles (24k) including getting into town and back, according to the gmaps pedometer, so feeling good for having managed some exercise this weekend.



buy a bike (read all 2 entries…)
Bike bought! 2 years ago
