Just got back from an 88 mile tour of Spofforth and York castles today led by tour guide Nigel who doesn't just know his way around the county but also knows a thing or two about the region's castles and their occupants.
After the Helmsley ride last week I managed to get another couple of rides in bringing that week in as my record week for mileage to date, something like 234 miles. For comparison, a chap I met in Majorca who was an amateur racer with shaved legs put in 400+ miles every week. That's a LOT of riding and not a lot of family time. I don't plan on being a racer so don't need to do that much and I don't think it would go down too well anyway!
