Billy No Mates

It was a case of 'Billy No Mate's' this weekend as I forgot to arrange a Sunday outing with the lads from work. Anyway I did manage to do a 40 miler, another combo ride mainly on a mix of A&B roads. As last weekend riding up to Broseley & on to Wenlock, but this time taking the Shrewsbury road & dropping into Harley - the 12% descent at 45 mph was awesome - I was in danger of overtaking cars at one point which is risky on skinny rubber. Continued to Shrewsbury along the Cressage road which is pretty straight & boring before turning for home through Atcham, Uffington & over Haughmond hill. A decent enough outing with the Wyre Forest sportive on the horizon - but I need to plan more miles before the stinger in 2 weeks time - hopefully a double ride next weekend, it would be rue not too with this weather and all.
