Try to ride at the right time to start with, when your not fatigued .

i am a postie so 5 days a week i have already walked for about 3.5 hours before i get home and start getting the roaming lust for the bike

Join us on a Saturday morning ride in May. Or Lizard on one this weekend. It really helps you with pacing and pushing through psychological barriers.
