The Retirement Thread

[Dave7]

I have just given the exercise bike some stick. Concentrating on hill work to help me when this lot is over.
Weights and situps next. I normally try for 5 or 6 sets of 10 on the weights and 200 situps.
Again I emphasise they are light weight and I use one of those situp roller thingies to protect the old back.

Why does everyone one here get up so early?

I'm with you on that one Derrick, it must be the North London fresh air that makes us sleep. I'm never in bed before midnight and Dirk set the rules for not getting up before 9o/c.

I was going to go out on my bike but I can't be arsed, so I made cinemon rolls instead.

More important in this time of need Welshie.
Can we ask us to send us 2 selfies. One now and the second after you have scoffed 12 cinamon rolls

 

[Dave7]

Down girl, down.

Just back from a walk around the lanes and fields at the back of us. Having a corned beef sarnie and a cuppa now.
Only a couple of miles done but it's very warm and my new sandals need some wearing in.

Just a quickie 11 miles today, I wore my shorts and sandals for the first time this year

Because they have wet the bed

Snap - awake at 5:19. I've enough milk for one coffee so hoping the milk lady is here soon.

It was 10C at 5.30. The sky looks clear, birds are singing their hearts out. No breeze. Looks like another beautiful day ahead.

No ride today. Yesterday despite only being 32 miles was tough in the last 6/7 miles. Three short but sharp inclines hurt me which is unusual. I've ridden 15 days out 17 since Lockdown, this week I pushed really hard Monday and Wednesday so it's clearly time for a rest. Saturday's ride will be a gentle meander.

Determined to get stuff done todsy

You as well?

Just back a nice 29 miles. Wasn't feeling very enthusiastic today but fine once I got going. A mix of cyclists and walkers out and about but not much traffic.
