I'm toying with the idea ...

Why maybe?

Depends if I get the urge again or not. This might sound odd, but I was never one for just riding for the sake of it; I prefer to be going somewhere. I'm happy to commute for up to maybe 25 miles each way, but now I work 75 miles from home I've lost my commute, and I'm finding it very hard to get motivated. But I'm starting to put weight on now so I'll have to do something.

Hmmmm, you need to put the fun back in cycling - next time you get a Saturday off, I'll cross the border with some wacky backy and the first one to give up on a hill buys the pub-stop pint

Less beer....

Hmmm, probably be easier to get the bike out than cut down my beer consumption!

Right, you're on. Would you be up for meeting up in Chepstow or somewhere like that?

Ha! I made it out of the door with my bike! Done 30 miles tonight in just over two hours which, given that it was dark, most of it seemed to be uphill and the last six or seven miles was on a disused railway path, I'm quite chuffed with.
