The Retirement Thread

[Dave7]

Just done the bike, situps and weights. During my stretches my hip and groin hurt. Doing the situps my chest hurt. Then I realised its the first time I've done them since I came off the bike.
Quite happy that I was able to get through them though.

Its empty! Only took me two hours, we've now got stuff stacked everywhere, I think a serious declutter is needed.

Morning. I decided to get out nice and early so 32 miles done. Only problem is, it hadn't warmed up so Mr Garmin says the average temperature was 37 degrees. My fingers and toes would agree!

Just plonked myself down with a big bowl of porridge now.

Excellent news! 👏👏

Me being the olden, it was a genuine, just tried to fill a glass topped jar without taking the lid off first, I am going crazy or just getting old.

I meant the joke.Last night Mrs p asked me to bring her drink up stairs.Got half way up and realised I had her mobile phone rather than the drink she had asked for.My biggest recurring mistake is opening the broom cupboard door when I am meant to open the freezer door.My excuse is the freezer stands next to the cupboard door😀😀😀

Perhaps we should form a support group.

Well, my wife's car has never been so clean ! I spent the best part of 2 hours vacuuming and cleaning thoroughly every where inside. Now for the outside and then I might do mine, although it was done not so long ago.

I tried the marmite peanut butter too.
Looking at the ingredients it is 90% peanut butter, 10% marmite and costs twice as much per 100 grammes.
+1 for the base layer/marmite/peanut butter 👍🍞

I saw it in my local Co-op a while back but the price was enough to put me off buying any. Your way sounds much better anyway! 👍

Saddles are so personal things.
A few years ago i bought the charge spoon on the basis of it's good reviews and being cheap as chips.
The first ride it nearly cut me in half i tried to persevere but it never got any better

I have finally found a saddle that suits me.Sella Italia Man.Have them on my three bikes.


I think part of my problem I think stemmed from my shorts.I find the density of the padding to dense.and pad seemed a little narrow I was brought upon the good old chammy pads .

By pure chance I found a brand of shorts that suite me regarding density and width.Never heard of this brand Przewalski found them on Amazon I normally can’t get on with bib shorts but for me perfect

Price is £19 99 -26.99.Thought at that price wort a punt.Have three pair’s now

For me as touch of luxury I also spread top the peanut butter with strawberry conserve

Minus the marmite I hasten to add

Ordered my Trump 2020 baseball cap. That should annoy Mrs D.

Now, if you could merge that with your previous thread about Sella Italia saddles I think you would be on a winner

I bought an Essax Shark sadlle off of somebody on here, suprisingly comfortable and that has reminded me it needs to go back on the turbo bike. If you have not seen one just google it.

Is that a real saddle or an April Fool?! That ... fin! Where does it go?!
On second thoughts , that might provide too much info.
