24/12/2015 Walton Bridge loop to complete 5,500 miles ridden this year

Went out for a morning ride, intent on cracking the 5,500 mile landmark

This was my first ride with my new saddle so I wasn’t going far, I was also aware of the forecast 🙁

I rode up Hanger Hill to the station then down St Georges Avenue to Egerton Road

I rode through Gower road to Queens Road and down to Monument Green

I descended Oatlands to Walton Bridge and picked up Walton Lane to return to town

By now I knew the new saddle was too low, ho hum and the tools were at home – adjusting would have to wait

When I reached the High Street I rode through to Heath Road, by now the wind was up and rain drizzling

Now I had the pleasure (yeah right) of ascending to the station into the wind and rain – NOT my idea of fun

When I reached the station I returned home down Hanger Hill.

Now home the tolls came out and the saddle was adjusted – I hope it’s not too high :-O
