Day One

Well, not really day one, as I started training in August of last year, but it's day one of the blog.

Today I went for a cycle. Went into Windsor and bought a new pump (Truflo HPX3) for £19.99. It slides under the bar and fits with no physical changes to the bike, so is really easy to take off/transfer to another bike. Used it to put some pressure into my tyres, as they were a bit flat never having been pumped since I bought the bike.

Rode up through Windsor onto the Bracknell road and the round Windsor Great Park, out the Virginia water exit and down through Egham/Runnymede/Old Windsor and home. The last leg took about 70 minutes, it was moderately windy.
