We went on holiday to Sandsend near Whitby last week. On one day, I decided to use my bike to travel to Goathland and Robin Hood’s Bay whilst the family went in the car, even though I had a bit of a sore throat. “Kill or cure”, thought I. Unfortunately, I took some wrong turns, so it ended up being a bit of a killer for me. Ended up with a serious throat infection that has put me off my bike for a couple of weeks. For the best part of a week, I couldn’t eat a sandwich without the aid of analgesia, an ice lolly and a spare hour to do the eating. However, two courses of antibiotics later it is slowly on the mend and I hope to cycle to work on Monday.<\/p>\n

Here is my route and statistics. 33 miles (OK, not so far) and nearly 2,500 feet of climbing (a lot for me). Steepest hill was 1-in-3, and many others were 1-in-4. The biggest climb was Blue Bank, which rises about about 800ft in 2 miles. This was a challenging day for me, but I’m pleased to say I didn’t get off and walk once. I’ll never complain about the hills around home again, though.<\/p>\n
