This week’s Travelsonabike2 on this day post comes from England on the 26th-April-2018. I’m in the UK and struggling to ride. I’d needed a hip replacement a couple of years ago but was still waiting. And now my hip was incredibly painful. So much so that I was struggling to cycle twenty miles each day. Today may have been one of my longer days.
Thursday 26th April 2018. Lingfield to Washington. 33 miles.
Well, I’m certainly dragging this ride out; I’m still not home! It’s just all a bit too painful. On any other ride, I would have been home yesterday. But it doesn’t matter, if I was home, I’d only spend all day down the pub.
As difficult as I’m finding this cycle camping malarky. I’m really enjoying it, not the pain, obviously, but everything else. I think it’s also helping my health more than usual. Usually, when I’m away touring, I tend to have quite a few beers in the evening. But not on this one. I’ve only been having one or two. It’s too painful having to get up in the night.
I think I’ll definitely be home tomorrow, but you never know!!
