Mr Goggle says red wine (in moderation) is not bad for you.

True. It can be beneficial but as one of my favourite tipples I know it puts weight on me!!!

How much can one glass a day do?

Mrs D is with you on that.
It looks like Boris doesnt it.
At least it will be interesting with him, scary but interesting

Bought a new suit for formal stuff today. Sister in Law's funeral is next Friday.
Found my old wedding suit in the back of the wardrobe and it still fits, 40 years on.

I wondered if this is an age thing? Weight! I'm finding my weight fluctuates far more than it used to. For example yesterday I was 72.6kg, today 71.2 and after my ride 70.9.

I always weigh myself under similar conditions, i.e when I first get up and after rides (,that's all fluid loss) and I'm aware of things which can cause short term fluctuation. It seems to happen more frequently now.

Any thoughts??

My weight is fairly steady at 11 stone, a couple of years ago it dropped to 10 stone 7 pound, but crept back up to 11 the other winter, I'm 5 foot 6 inch tall. 11 stone is a good cycling weight for me, lighter and I loose power, heavier and the weight slows me down. Food wise I eat what I like and like what I eat, I don't bother about diet.

Good morning folk, sunny this morning, but no cycling, we're of on a coach trip later and having lunch with our fellow wrinklies at the Bodenham Arboretum

Morning all.
Off for a ride this morning to meet up with a friend and ride back to Braunton for coffee. He had a mini stroke last week, but the docs have told him to keep exercising.

Don't worry. It soon will be.

Porridge done.....that was needed after a muddy and steepish mountain bike spin. Sun is out up here. Hope it stays.

Suppose I'd better go and wash the mud off the bike soon.
