Slow Cycle saturday

As we all had a busy weekend and aheavy saturday night approaching. We thought we'd go for a quick blast Staurday afternoon. This was only 8 miles but mainly offroad. For some reason we were all knackered after the ride! I think our winter fitness regime has improved our stamina but not our strength.
We are sure that one offraod mile is equivilaent to 2 road miles (thats our excuse anyway). No incedents to report apart from the recent rain had made things very boggy in hockely woods
