Was knackered going to work today on the bike. Not a huge amount more energy this afternoon either.
Had some good news before leaving which left me smiling the whole way home...along with a very fast time for the usual 8 mile commute home in the usual traffic, with the same weather and wind conditions as other days.
Made me wonder whether it was as a result of the good news, and wanting to tell my Wife in person, or whether the actual act of smiling can make you faster or the effort feel easier?
Anyone experienced similar?
Anyone fancy trying it for no apparent reason on their next ride?
Between us we could really frighten our fellow cyclists/pedestrians/drivers on our commute tomorrow!?!
