Hahaha! Yes, it is! Actually, Conor had hatched the idea about a year and a half ago to go to boarding school. This, I think, was reinforced by him reading the Spud books. He got a bit of an eye-opener when he heard the routine and discipline at the school he had picked as he preferred one! :lol:

 

ps, Your morning ride sounded awesome...well, maybe apart from the drunk oke.

 

I am a boarding school boy! I was one of those who really enjoyed it there :D

 

That's the thing about boarding school you either love it or hate .....

On week days I get up at 03H00 to go to the gym... Weekends are my late sleep morning... That said, I wake up at 07H30

 

Gym is open at 04H00. Planet Fitness. Is a great way to wake in the morning. Get rid of all my grumpy morning startup routine. Shower at the gym and hit the road to work at 06H10 in the morning... Oh what we will do to miss traffic.

yeah tWas perfect, managed around 40km on both sides. Relaxed ride, giraffes grazing :) I enjoyed it :)

this morning I started 7am at Bredes Nek 60km... Cold! I thought I was going to loose my limbs lol!

 

The morning was cold - wore my MTB pants!

World of a difference!!

Im sure I could take on the early morning rides again - if i can get out of bed!

Yip. :(

 

 

 

I will too. I am luckier than most divorced dads in that I see my boys nearly every day. It'll be hard, but it's his choice.

It's scary how quick they grow up. My son also made the choice himself. At least he wanted to go, which is halfway towards it being successful. He has found it tough though, but still chooses to be there. At least we do the odd ride together now when he is home, which we never did when he lived at home.

Was freezing at 04H20 when I took of to the gym... And the 40 seconds of cold shower water did not help at all. Must get into the groove now to get used to the cold morning wake up.

Yeah, Conor's eyes were opened when he got the rundown of the daily and weekly schedules, but he's made the choice. I guess I'll have an excuse to do more races and riding down in that part of the country!
