FORWARD INTO 2021

These are my vital bike statistics for 2020.  I did 141 journeys, travelled 2,429 miles and my elevational gain was 229,915ft (70,075 metres).  Because of Covid I never left Devon.  In normal years I cycle 3,500 miles or more because I go bike touring.

As 2021 sets off to a bumpy start, there is more social distancing, constant washing of hands and wearing face masks that makes us all look that we are about to rob banks.  Never have I been so clean!

However I live in hope for 2021. Vaccines are coming and there is a growing popular clamour to deal with climate change.  Bike holidays are more fun and sociable than sitting in a car. I look forward to my bike tours again.  My last plane journey was in 2010 and I do not miss them. The great outdoors is calling and this is where fun starts.
