Sorry to hear about your aches Wow, have you been doing too much with your hand
No, not that kind of thing before you ask.
I have been out
confidence is returning, I just threw on my cycling things, grabbed a bottle and went, I didn't have long to get to school for an appt and the weather wasn't particularly nice but I went anyway, this is a huge step for me. 11kms in 20 mins, takes me about 10-12 minutes by car down the A14. Very main roady and lots of respect from motorists
Coming back was a different pot of marmite altogether, 27 minutes into a life sapping wind, grinding away, gasping like a fish as the wind sucked the breath straight out of my mouth. Hot and happy and very pleased with myself. It wasn't far but this is a huge improvement in my mental strength for just getting on and going.
As always the kids were delighted to see me on the bike and JC was proud to see him mum cycling in yet again.
