Long distance cycle

We haven't been 'proper' cycling for ages, and we need to test how far we can ride because we have a couple of cycling trips planned.

I decided that we should go to Newark as it was about the right distance and I wanted to cycle along by the route of the River Trent. 

Overall it went very well, apart from the narrow, bumpy footpath along the bank of the river that Google told us to follow. To be fair, Darren was totally against it, and he turned out to be right. I hate it when that happens! 

We managed 80 kilometres with a coffee and cake stop in Newark and fishfinger sandwiches with cider in Burton Joyce. 

Soooo tired when we got home, but have are definitely off on a multi day trip next week.
