leisure/fitness rides

[Jon George]

Late morning on weekdays for fitness workouts - the advantage of being a self-employed author - and 6.30 ish on Sundays for the leisure spin. (Though not today - had fun cycling around Ipswich and the surrounding area delivering Christmas cards. )

During the week going to work I leave home at 06:00, and leave for the return at 18:00.
The morning ride is better than the evening ride.
I get to work for 08:00 and miss the people making a mad dash for 09:00 starts.

At the weekends I prefer to go earlier in the mornings, but it normally ends up being whatever time I can be bothered to get out of bed and out of the house (and how my legs feel following the commuting week).

I only live 4 miles from work (so the additional 16miles are really leisure miles) but mixing with impatient drivers late for work is not my idea of leisure, so I like the early starts and going for the 20 miles instead, much nicer, plus there is a nice hot shower waiting for me at the other end, so may as well take advantage.

And, of course, you know where your towel is and know enough Vogon poetry to keep the place to yourself.

If I am at work, then as soon as I get home at 6PM I go out for an hour.
If I am not at work, then as soon as I get up, which is about 10am (), for about an hour and a half.

However, if it's raining I will wait until it stops. If it's windy I alter my route.
