6 mile bike ride today

Looking at options for your non run days? This was quite pleasant 😁 couple of mean hills but with it 👍🏻

Good luck all running today 💪🏻

Beautiful photo Jericho - I might have to get back out on my bike (I've not ridden it for years!!). 🚲

[Jericho2332 Graduate in reply to StoneDragon]

Thank you! Yeah it had been a while for me too 🤣 used to do miles on the bike and breaking myself back in gently 😂

[StoneDragon Graduate in reply to Jericho2332]

Not a big fan of being on the saddle now but I used to love cycling as a kid!!

[Jericho2332 Graduate in reply to StoneDragon]

I used to go crazy tearing down hills and things like that, a couple of nasty falls few years ago put a stop to all that but I'm happy to be out riding again...may have to trade in the mountain bike for a road bike as I'm only doing roads and paths from now on 🤣

[StoneDragon Graduate in reply to Jericho2332]

That'll set you back even more than the running shoes 💸🚲😂

Nice!! Great pic. I love cycling but not keen to do it these days on busy streets etc (I'm in London). I am envious of you cycling that route, looks lovely. It's a non-run day for me today - actually woke up WANTING to run but held back, what has happened to me??? I'm planning a 5km walk at lunchtime.

[Jericho2332 Graduate in reply to Runforurlife]

Yeah I wanted to run too, chose this option! We have amazing places on our doorstep in Middlesbrough and some really beautiful places within a 10-15 minute drive or half hour ride.

[Runforurlife Graduate in reply to Jericho2332]

Ah the Boro! My first serious bf many years ago was from Middlesbrough. Spent a bit of time there visiting, good memories.

[Jericho2332 Graduate in reply to Runforurlife]

Haha really! Small world. Do we know him? 🤣

It's improving as a town and not as bad as people make out 🤣

Your photos are always a great advert for our area, particularly around Middlesbrough considering the bad press it ‘always’ receives it needs it. I’ve a bike in my shed and I’ve never ridden it, maybe I should.

[Jericho2332 Graduate in reply to Jcksam]

We do get a lot of bad press, sometimes deservedly but mostly not. We have some amazing areas for walking and riding close to us and there well worth visiting. Give the bike a blast if you have one sitting there, good exercise especially on non running days 👍🏻 quick and easy too if ya only have a limited time.

[Jcksam in reply to Jericho2332]

Aye well that’s me, a limited time should be put on my gravestone, that and “when I get a-round-tuit”!😂😂

[Elfe5 Graduate]

Great photo.😄

Cycling is a great rest day activity- very good for maintaining knee strength. 😄

[Jericho2332 Graduate in reply to Elfe5]

Yeah I need to keep my knee strength up! Should help build the running pace and distance up 🤞🏻

Looks amazing- you can be Team Gazelle’s social/ fitness planner and we’ll follow your lead. My non run days are usually come home from work and catch up on Bake off and 90 day fiancé! Might give it a try at the weekend!

[Jericho2332 Graduate in reply to Bambi2020]

I love me some bake off!😁 And eating cakes 😂😂

I will certainly keep the gazelles updated on my activities and encourage them all to have a go 😁💪🏻🦌
