Training

About four months ago I purchased a new bike from ebay.  It is a Dawes Discovery 301 Tourer. The bike was in an immaculate condition and came from Scotby Cycles at Carlisle.  Since buying the bike I have so far covered some 850 miles with only one puncture so I am doing well at the moment.  The training tends to be comprised of Gym work and road cycling which gives me the experience of dodging traffic with a bit of defensive cycling. I have also done a number of miles with my other bikes so all in all so far I have probably covered in excess of 1500 miles
