Sunshine


A bit of sunshine really does make all the difference. After an horrendous amount of faffing I eventually found myself outside, wearing shorts (not quite tropical enough to ditch the knee warmers) and on a bike. An hour of pedalling and things maybe don't seem so bad, although my fitness is on the floor somewhere, I had to stop and rest part way up an easy hill, but I got home wishing I had more than an hour to spare and could keep riding, and that's a good sign things will get back to normal.

So happy to hear you had a sunny ride! It does wonders! I'm sure you will find your mojo again.

Fantastic when the weather allows less clothing. Must say that this winter has been long for me but thats probably because its my first real winter riding seriously, so been huffing to get out there without the mud

Mojo back then?

Let me know about a ride next week? I could do something local tomorrow.

I'm glad the mojos back. I'm sure the fitness will soon follow.

I don't know that the mojo is fully restored but I feel a bit better for a ride.

Trio - tomorrow I have to fit a bit round Glyn going to Rochdale, still don't know if I'm going to visit my sis, depends on her shifts, I'll know tomorrow probably.

Just started jogging again after having no mojo for far too many months. Been twice this week and taking it slow and steady .... not that i am any where near your kind of fitness.. walking is my main love :-)

Sally - we were discussing today we should make more effort to get out and walk, take more advantage of the Lake District only being an hour away. A few of the guys in my run club keep trying to tempt me into LDWA events, you'd probably be way more capable at those than me, can't remember the last time I walked more than 15 miles.

A few weeks ago when we had all that lovely sunshine Geoff and i spent 3 days walking The cumbria way from ulverston... we covered 66 miles in the 3 days and it was a great walk.s
