Distance 75miles Av Sp 15.2mph Ascent 6000ft
Cross wind out, full on head wind and cross wind back. The day started off overcast but lovely and warm. As soon as Jamie and I hit W.Yorkshire the wind picked up and felt cold and glad that I wore long sleeves and bib longs. Hebden Bridge road to Oxenhope and Haworth and most of the trip to Keighley is above 1000ft and highly exposed to super winds. The only thing I'll say about the return trip is 'hell', no the whole ride was 'hell'.

About Me
- Crimmey
- I started gym a few years ago just to lose weight as I had ballooned to 17 stone. Recently I started swimming again after a 10 year lay off, this is where I met the rochdale tri-club. I started cycling 30 months ago after not having been on a bike since 12 and also trying to get my running up to scratch but my dodgy left knee is hampering my efforts. I have competed in 3 triathlons to date (Rossendale) hope to do at least 1 more by end of year, my running is really bad though. Weight now is 10 stone 12lbs.
