Have you ever tried the rollers? Looks like a more natural training ride but I'd just fall off all the time!

 

Rollers give next to no resistance and are for trackside warming up, just to get the legs spinning really.

 

Two hours today, tailwind out and was dreading the return trip but I punched into the wind like a steam train, loved every second of it. No doubt cos I'm well rested from having this week off work.

Cycled 15 miles with my wife on the back roads of Essex. The last few miles were on the Flitch Way near Dunmow. We stopped at the new cafe at Canfield for a bacon roll.

Trudi, who is still on chemotherapy was riding her electric bike, what a fantastic machine, it's a real tonic.

Hey John flitch is a lovely ride I'm a dunmow boy and used to play on the flitch line often, where's this new cafe in Canfield?

Cafe is at Little Canfield. Only open at weekends.

We also used to play on the line. As soon as they took up the tracks in the 70's we were able to drive an old Morris 1000 traveller that we had on the farm up a byway and then turned right onto the railway line. We could drive all the way to Dunmow. Those were the days, I was about 12 at the time.
