Mt. Biking: Pendam Wind Direction: N/A Wind Stength: N/A Surf / Sea State: N/A Air Temperature: 15ÂșC Sea Temperature: N/A Weather: Cloudy and drizzly Max Speed: 48.8 km/h (knots - unless stated otherwise) Distance Covered: 21 km (Nautical Miles - unless stated otherwise)
I couldn't wait to get out on my new bike so as soon as it looked a little
drier I headed off to Pendam for a stab at the northern loop of the
Syffydrin Trail. As I got closer to the hills it was evident that it wasn't
as dry there as it was on the coast and I set off in the pouring rain.
Having not been on a bike from around 12 years and probably about 15 years
since I rode one in anger I wasn't expecting to be too good on it, and sure
enough i was a little hesitant over the technical stuff and slower uphill
than I should have been... I don't remember having to use the small chain
ring quite so much.
All in all a good route and a good couple of hours on the bike. I did
manage to get around without getting off which was a good start!
All in all it was 21 km which took me about 1hr 50.. Hopefully as I get
fitter and more confident with the bike that will improve.
