    didn't do too well on this last year, too much else going on / other commitments etc, but things (hopefully) easier this year so it is one of my targets for '07

    Or, in other words, i'm in

    1 - 26th Jan, 118.58km / 73.7miles. Caister - Horsey - Sea Palling - Stalham (cake stop) - A1151 then vague route through country lanes to Neatishead - Horning - Wroxham - Coltishall - sister's gaff in Norwich (chocolate cake stop) - Salhouse - South Walsham - Acle - Stokesby - Ormesby St Margaret - Caister. Longest ride since last May. Bit wet & windy in places

    2 - 15th Feb, 104.43km / 64.9miles. Caister - St Olaves - Burgh St Peter - Ellingham - Bungay - Flixton - Harleston - Hempnall - Stoke Holy Cross - Norwich train station. Warmer than Jan's ride and nice to see some early spring Skylarks & Snowdrops, nice tailwind over last 20 miles too

    3 - 2nd March, 112.95km / 70 miles. Up the east Norfolk coast thro' Winterton, Happisburgh, past the "golfball" to Overstrand Clifftop Cafe (1358 sea miles to Gibraltar). And back again.
    Blue sky, sunshine, shorts and a fine looking female cyclist along the way to lift the, er, spirit

    4 - 15th March, 107.73km / 67miles. Norwich train station out onto NCR1 railway path to Taverham, back on the roads & through Ringland, Lyng, North Elmham, Gt Ryburgh (+ loop about Colkirk & Gateley), on to Guist, Wood Norton, Guestwick, Cawston, B1149 to Norwich & the train staion.

    One more cyclist
    <hr height="1" noshade id="quote"></blockquote id="quote"></font id="quote">

    5 - 18th April. 130.11 km / 80.8 miles... Caister, Lowestoft, Southwold & the old railway path to Walberswick, Dunwich, Leiston. And back again. Nightingales singing in Dunwich Forest

    6 - May 25th. 162.34km / 101 miles. ... Caister, Wroxham, Fakenham, Burnham Market, Norfolk Coast Cycleway to Sheringham (got the train). Saw a Montagu's Harrier. Much too wet in the afternoon but was still my biggest ride in over 2 years


    One more cyclist
    Morning route (when i don't get the train)

    Hey-hey , my first metric century , or to be more precise double century.
    This year's Dun Run , 120 miles on the computer (with a deviation or two) , plus the rides to get to London Fields before the off ............ do I get two points for the 200 km?
