Training hard and managing the polution

May 2011

When packing in the training miles, managing the traffic is one problem but polution is also another factor.

Although I get a lot of miles in on country roads I still have to get the big miles on some pretty busy roads.

Often I commute from Towcester to Wolverhampton to catch up with family cycling on some of the busiest A roads. This picture just goes to show the polution I content with when out training.

On a 160 mile round trip this can be quite substantial and someting I can't say I enjoy.
