Spinning wheels

Monday we both went for a bicycle ride. We are blessed with countless paths and tracks for running but it is difficult to find suitable off road routes for cycling. The off road sections that we rode were made easier because of the dry weather we are enjoying. I do enjoy riding through mud but this was an injury enforced ride so it was just a case of spinning the wheels in a low gear to exercise the Achilles without putting any strain on it. The sun was shinning and flys battered my sunglasses. My saddle did not feel quite as hard as Sunday and I may be tempted to go out again today. It is not as tiring as running but I do get time to see a bit more of the countryside.
