Set off at about 1035 with the intention of doing about 50km. Had an appointment this afternoon, and it was too cold early on to set off much earlier. I thought I’d do the Eastbound Route for a bit – into Nottinghamshire than loop back via Sutton Bonington. Unfortunately I’m never quite sure which route to take for Sutton from Rempstone Road. I took Trowell Lane, which was correct, but then took a left off that called Hungary Lane, which wasn’t. Kept going along Hungary Lane until it degenerated into more of a trail than a road. Then looped back. I did visit Sutton Bonington via Park Lane on the way back.
Got as far as the hump-back bridge over the railway, which was closed – so I wouldn’t have been able to do the loop I intended anyway.
Really nice along there in the winter sunshine. Lots of greenery. Nottingham Uni has a campus along there.
Came back via Diseworth and Griffydam for a bit more distance. Back on 50.82 km.
That’s 339 km in February, not that much and it’s a short month.
