Overall Totals
Here you'll find an overview of all my cycling statistics whilst in Wales.
For the most part, I haven't set out to achieve any specific numbers. That is; I don't ride for distance. I just ride my bike to go places and see things. I ride for the shear pleasure I find in pedalling across this lovely little country. So thank you Wales... thank you for being so friendly and beautiful and interesting.
