Slow and steady

Todays journey was a grand total of 4.64 miles. Not far I admit but I was on the bike rather than in the car and the aim was a Sunday morning cycle for some fresh air rather than  actually needing to get somewhere. Down to the river, along one side into the city centre, over the bridge, down the other side and back home. All details calculated and recorded on the MapMyRide app on the iPhone. Got to love a bit of technology that does nothing but provide statistics you really don't need, but are fun to have. Saw the Mayor of York plus wife and dog whilst cycling along the river. I always expect a mayor to look pompous and austere, not a random windswept bloke in jeans and a jumper just enjoying the fresh air as much as me.
