Took The High Road

Yes I changed the route I cycle round today to try and stop me taking a run around the houses to get 10 miles on my trips.
10.1 miles today the first 2 were a killer as the wind is up today and having jumped around like a teenager for 2 hours last night my muscles ache.
Managed to get my fastest speed this year of 32.6 mph.
Would have got faster but as I was flying round the corner at 32.6 mph, low to the bars with a following wind, I had to ram on the brakes to stop for a flock of sheep crossing the road.
The average was lower today disappointing as its been getting better only 12.2 mph today.
So the trip took 49.42 mins.
Any way it's kind of a new route so I can still build the speed and average time.

That should be part of this months purchases Womble once payday comes around.
Well no a pro camera but as close as I can get for £170.
The zoom is begining to bug me on this camera so I'm opting for a new one.
Blog on new purchase will follow soon.
And as I have said I'm joining the camera club to see if we can't develop my skills.
Pro by next year lol you never know
Hmmm wonders if Generic designs needs a new photographer( looks for AL's phone number)

Make sure you get one with a good optical zoom, rather than digital zoom. Try eBay, my mate bought a really good digital SLR on there. OK it's more expensive, but it was worth it.

I'm only going for an slr style camrea just now Kodak z650 as I'm short of funds its cheap most of the same features as an slr. 10x optical zoom (38-380) equiv manual modes and Im happy with what I an getting with the kodak at the moment appart from the zoom.
Hope to get an slr before long though.
