Goodness, I'd fade away completely on that little ;)

Here's what I had yesterday

Choc digestive with early morning cup of tea (courtesy of Uncle James)
Giant bowl of cereal: nutty Muesli, then Jordan's Country Crisp Four Nut Combo (or whatever it's called now), with Honey Nut Cheerios on top. Probably 120g cereal in total
Another choc digestive and cuppa
Doughnut and tea at Uni when I arrived.

For lunch, half a french stick (200g) with butter and salami.
Bag of quavers.
Orange.
Banana.

Afternoon snack - Aldi Totally Peanut bar (they are fab!)
50g (ish) of Dairy Milk Caramel choc
2 cups of tea

Late afternoon snack: the other half of the french stick with butter

Dinner: roast chicken with chipolata sausage and stuffing wrapped in schwarzwälder Schinken
Roast veg including 300g potatoes, butternut squash, carrots, pepper, onion, courgette.

Dessert (an hour or so later): bread & butter pudding with custard (yum!)

Late snack - tea and the end of the Dairy Milk caramel bar.

See what I mean, not particularly healthy, definitely not enough fibre. And I'm still losing weight ;)

Ahh you noticed that huh? ;):smile:
Speed has improved a tad - The frame needs to be changed for soemthing a bit bigger but commuting on it is going well so far (especially in this week's fine weather ;)). Average has gone from about 13.5 to about 15mph. I seem to be able to cruise along at 19-20 mph fairly easily. Am planning to do the Friday night London - Brighton in a couple of weeks on it... so I will also be doing a longer ride at the weekend (Likely Sunday) to help me get used to the sdalle more. So far my furthest on it is only 34 miles! :laugh:

Sounds grand mate.
Bigger frame? is that because of the small stem.. if I remember rightly, or is the frame too small for you.

Thank you longers :tongue:

Seems like Aran20 may be on a rest day which has enabled me to hit top spot again (for a brief time anyway). Yello, you're not allowed to go out on your bike in the next few days, OK? I like being on top (I'm that kind of gal).

12 on the CycleChat team have done over 450 miles this month already though - we're doing so well!!!
