April update

Well, it's official! March was one of the coldest on record.......no s*** Sherlock! I'm lucky I still have digits!


It is now the 9th April 2013 and I was cycling up around Buxton just a couple of days ago and there are still banks of snow up there. The blast of cold coming off them was none too pleasant!

So March saw more work on the turbo than I had planned. I had planned that mid March to mid April was the time to go to work on the hills. I can now do my allotted 60 miles in a day with not too much difficulty but doing 60 miles on the flats of the Cheshire Plains is quite a different proposition to the first day of the coast to coast.

This is what the elevation profile for the coast to coast looks like


 

Lots of hills, mainly on the first day which is why I need to be cycling on the hills near home.
