Anyone else feel this?

[Lavender Rose]

So I am clock watching at work, counting down till 2pm when I can finish (and no I am not a part timer...been here since 6am !)

I swapped shifts with a workmate, purely, so I could make the most of the sun in Kent today, despite it being a tad chilly, and the wind being almost bearable.

I have been riddled with an annoying cold/cough since Sunday and it doesn't seem to be going away, despite lots of rest. I have around 11 miles left to reach my target this month so I decided to do it today...regardless of me coughing my lungs up!

I just wondered if anyone else gets all excited at the thought of going on their cycle beforehand?! I am buzzing! I think its probably because I have been resting since Sunday

Yeah, I'm looking forward to a very silly ride to the shops this afternoon. I've been off the bike with a stinking cold since Saturday.

 

[BSOh]

Im not cycling at the moment other than the odd bimble but i do look forward to the gym especially after a rest day.

 

[Fonze]

Took two days off and went today, was really looking forwards to it , so yes do look forward and buzz before I go ..

Today was really miserable so you have to enjoy it to go out on the bike ..

@Charlotte, keep taking the vitamin C.

Hope your ride went to plan today.

Don't do it.

If your bike was broken you wouldn't ride it till you had it fixed, treat your body the same or you'll risk making yourself worse.

Been there, done that.

Can't wait to start easing back into riding again in about 4 weeks as had my knee op last week.
Still on crutches at moment but gives me something to aim for.
Wrap up warm and you will be warm after first couple of miles.
Won't take long.

 

[Drago]

How are you getting on with the new bike Ms. B?

 

[delb0y]

Yes, is the answer. I had the day off today and was really looking forward to a ride on account of I've just added a rack and a pannier to my bike so I can once again carry some decent camera kit around with me. But, alas, I got up, made a coffee, and started working on the latest book (*) whilst letting the rush hour traffic clear and never stopped working on the book until 17:00.

(*) Nothing professional or anything. Just another hobby.

Fresh air wont hurt you..hope you managed the 11 and another 10 to make sure

I do get a buzz when i see its not raining so a good day for it but i'm the boss so by about 10 am i'm thinking i'll go at lunch time . By about 3pm i realize it isn't going to happen as i still have loads to do and it all starts again tomorrow morning

 

[si_c]

Buggered off an hour early today so I could extend my commute out a bit.

 

[Gravity Aided]

Yea, you know I'm right cool with not being the boss any more....

 

[mgs315]

Yep. At the moment work has been busy so despite starting before it’s even remotely light and not being able to commute by bike due to needing too many tools and a 30 mile motorway trip in the way I don’t tend to get home with much more than 30 minutes before dark at the mo. Those days I do get away early on the drive home I have a smile on my face planning my ride depending on how much time I have and I’m very much looking forward to Friday as I’m working nights so I’ve got a full day to go about my cycling. Woo!

The commute home especially is a joy most days. Decompress and turn the legs!
