Yesterday was our first test.
We were feeling slightly nervous as we embarked on our first 'long-distance' ride. Bath was our destination, 17 miles along the Bristol Bath old railway path.
But, we shouldn't have worried! We really enjoyed the ride, and managed the distance in about an hour and a half. So - we are both feeling confident that we are not completely out of our depth with our summer plans.
The path is cool, and if anyone wants to do something nice of an afternoon I would thoroughly recommend it. The path runs along an old railway, and there are a few interesting old dinosaurs to see as you go along. Also, some people have started up cute little cafes in some of the tiny little stations along the way. Very cool.
We even contemplated riding the 17 miles home again, but decided that might be a good goal for next time, and caught the train home. I think it might be a regular jaunt. Woohoo - feels like we are on our way!!!
