It's been a while since my last bike ride: and it was great to get out there again. I won't deny me legs were hurting something terrible towards the end, and I will admit to frustration that somewhere along the ride my phone popped out of my pocket [off to try and get a replacement today], but all-in-all, it was a good ride. Particularly enjoyable as the tracks often follow the creeks in the area: some may be in a bad state due to pollution, but there is still something marvellous about cycling alongside a meandering creek, with trees and flowers on either side.
I discovered an interesting website, Gmaps Pedometer: using it you can plot your journey using Google Maps. If anyone is interested in where I rode, click here. [Though I doubt it'll mean anything to any of you! :)]
