@Edwardoka really has a cunning Plan,which I read about in another thread on CC ... :huh:

Basically, he deliberately leaves the house a minute or so later each day, thus requiring him to ride faster :sweat: so he still gets to work on time, thus continuing
contributing to the economy
The result of this will be seen during 'The Season' :sun:, when he is way too fast for the rest of us me and spends his time waiting for the rest of us me by eating CAKE :hungry:, thereby undoing all his mid-winter efforts. :ohmy:

He will, however, really enjoy his rides. :biggrin:

An interesting hypothesis but sadly a provably wrong one!
Today I staggered into a meeting 18 minutes after my official start time( only 3 minutes late to the meeting though :hello: ) still wearing my cycling get-up (and I was slower than I was yesterday :wacko:)

What's that old saying,
If you find yourself in the company of a halfling and an ill-tempered dragon, remember that you do not have to outrun the dragon; you simply have to outrun the halfling.
I don't have to outrun the broom wagon, I just have to outrun the arrière du peloton :laugh:
He will, however, really enjoy his rides. :biggrin:
For a given value of "enjoy" :crazy:

Would you believe it??? I got the silent treatment by a guy at the lights yesterday morning! Wouldn't normally bother saying good morning to random guys on bikes :tongue: but it was an empty street at 7am, we were both stopped at the lights next to each other, seemed rude not to say anything.
I mean, only because I ride a tractor ... :whistle:

3.5 miles run last night :heat: What am I doing to myself :crazy:

Thankful for the rest today and maybe all weekend, thats 100 cycling miles done, 2 gym sessions and a 3.5 mile run this week :heat: Not had a takeaway or fizzy juice since the 4th January and no alcohol since the 1st but that's easy cause I barely drink :bravo:

Need to be careful you don't do too much, I know you're young but you are still damaging muscle when exercising, the more you push it the more susceptible you are to injury - build in a rest day young man!
