Treacle Pedalling

Woke up at a normal time this morning. Lovely satin sheets wrapped around me. I did not want to get out of bed, but hunger and the need to pee finally won me over.

Did a 12 mile bike ride today. My bike is a dual suspension beast that some idiot in Halfords sold me. Why oh why did he not ask me what I wanted it for?? I would have been far better off with a much lighter model, the dual suspension makes me feel like I am on a rocking horse. And the weight of the thing feels like I am pedalling through treacle. The gears don't seem to make any difference at all, so totally pointless as a bike and would make Mr Raleigh and his Chopper turn in his grave.

Tried to run as well today, but managed just under 2 miles before giving up. Today was supposed to be a rest day, afterall. The bike ride just about killed me.

I have decided to start a running club. We will meet at Draycote Water at 10am and run together. It's soul destroying running alone. I have asked for a bit on the Draycote Sailing Club forum, to promote my new club but have yet to hear back.

Nice to catch a bit of sunshine today and managed to nip up the town for a few bits. A few holiday fots actually that I wanted printing, to jazz up the wall in the study. I now have my babe smiling down at me as I do stuff on the computer. Hmmm, on second thoughts.... LOL :O)

Right, must dash, Kez (my babe) is due round at seven and I need to dust and hoover, and then make myself look half presentable.

Ciao 4 now..
