Getting slower :-(

[Deleted member 1258]

The older I get, the faster I was

As most people are, something about how the memory works.

You can't be as slow as me. I can't keep up with the family walking, let alone throw a leg over a bike. They shot off down the hospital corridors today (son's visit not mine).

As its happened I barely touched the bike after posting this, until last Thursday when I switched to the " good" bike and a combination of that and the tail wind gave me the best ride of a long time. Including an 18mph uphill pb :-)
Unfortunately I then had to collect a sick child and the bike has been stuck at work ever since :-(
I really must bring it home tomorrow.

Including an 18mph

18mph uphill? We have different definitions of slow.

I'm certainly not going to offer any more advice until you drop considerably from that pace.

Stupid antidepressants have put a stone on me in a couple of months. Uphill speed now shite. Pissed off. Also lost my front light on the way in this morning. Oath, oath, curse, curse, oath.

Well done for getting out!

It was a first, possibly a last :-)
I took advantage of the good weather and took a slightly longer, partially off road, route home today.
Was equal parts "yay" and " please don't fall in the mud"
