Finally, a good day. Great day, in fact. Have to say I'm sitting here feeling VERY chuffed with myself and really pretty positive today. Just done 20 miles over the Downs - or should I say up, down and over the Downs. Weather fantastic - just right. Plenty of breeze to keep cool but the sun kept shining. Went up to Devil's Dyke and all the way around Dyke Road to Poynings and Fulking. What gorgeous little villages - some lovely pubs, too!! Had the choice at Edburton to carry on along the road until I got to a major junction and then come back on the road as well, OR take a bridle path straight up the MASSIVE hill and over the top. Took the bridle path and no, I didn't cycle. Pushed bike all the way to the top - nightmare!! At the top I thankfully joined the South Downs Way so got in quite a bit of off-road cycling, too. Came down to the sea and ended up in Shoreham, where I turned home. It felt GREAT!!!
It'll be interesting how I'm feeling tomorrow, though - AND I've got my karate grading. Argh!
