July150 Balls Up
Well and truly stuffed my chances of an easy route to the 150 miles cycling in July. I mainly go out on my day off or/and a Sunday, due to the fact that after cycling about 6 miles and walking about 10 miles at work during the day I just can’t be arsed to get ready and hit the road in the evening.
Well last Sunday the wind was so bad I didn’t even attempt it, I’ve worked my day off for this week, my bike is in for it’s free service this Sunday, it’s Jade’s 18th birthday the following Sunday and the following weekend to that sees my birthday, where I may be in no state to ride on the Sunday. :-)
So it’s either fail big style or put my ass in gear after work and at least get a few miles a night in and then if I get a day off can knock in a good few miles to get me at least close.
This challenge is a great motivator so I guess it’s out after work once or twice then!!
Watch this space!!

Hows this for motivation, you gotta get at least one ride in with me :)

Well I’m planning on not working my day off next week ;-) (until the brain shuts down and the mouth says yes anyway) However with an 18th birthday to fund any extra cash is handy lol

I must get my bike n for service. The gear cables have definitely relaxed and whilst I could do that myself, maybe it’s time for a general tightening and tidying of all the bits & pieces.
I bet you get some rides in! I hope so anyway…!

My cables seem fine, just got a tappy pedal and a vibration somewhere so thought it may as well go in for its free service and get sorted. :) Also got a very loose front brake, not good for stopping :)
