The Second Sportive








After the Brian Robinson ride, Dave and I tackled our second Sportive of the year. 80 miles in the steep Dales, going to Yorkshire, Durham and Cumbria on a great route. I managed it in under 6 hours [which got a bronze] and felt every mile. The route took in Tan Hill [highest pub in England], the Settle-Carlisle line and Wensleydale.
This is the bike I use. Bianchi blue [or celeste as it is officially known] is one of the great cycling colors so I am very happy to have it.
