The Retirement Thread

I was advised by two pain specialist to use the Tenns to block pain signals, it seems to be working. Certainly seems to be better than drugs.

Drug use on a turbo! Whatever next?

I am shrinking year by year.
I was 6' 7" when I was born.

You'll be less than a foot tall at the end. Use a shoebox for a cheap one.

Do you think I should have told Pam before I turned it up to level 20.

Women** like men with a lot of power.

**apart from my wife who seems to enjoy knocking me around.

I'm still at the same fighting weight now as I was in my 20s.*
Unfortunately, I'm almost an inch shorter at 5' 11.5" .....

Goodnight everybody, I am off up the wooden hill.

I'm five and a half feet tall and 11 stone, bang on my best cycling weight, lighter and I lose power, heavier and the weight slows me down, not having a lot of speed or power these days I can't afford to lose any of either.

Follow @screenman's example, plug her into the mains and turn it up.

I've always been what would be termed as a proportionate powerful build. I'm still good at a sprint but I'm definitely not built as a pure climber.
When people estimate my weight, they are invariable about 15 - 20lbs under.

I'm not big enough to be a good sprinter and though I'm small enough to be a climber I've always climbed slow and steady..

I've taken a few KoMs and top tens, locally, on shortish Strava sprints over the past 5 years. Purely done for vanity.

More distance and shifting loads missen.

Strava is something I don't use.

Strava is something I don't use.

It gives me a bit of motivation and I enjoy being able to look at the pretty maps of where I've been and see what others are up to as well.

Morning. Up early and just finished a coffee. Probably head out for an early jog. I love the peace and quiet of an early Sunday morning. Temperature hovering around freezing though so not sure what jacket to wear. It will be cold to start until I warm up.

Good morning. Bloody feeezing here again, but there is sun.
