Johnstoneighty6 Posted July 1, 2013 Posted July 1, 2013 One thing l learned from cycling......... coffee.
428 others Posted July 1, 2013 Posted July 1, 2013 Just when you think you are the sh.t, a race comes along that brings you down to earth in a big way! BushGoblin, Mads, Johnstoneighty6 and 1 other 4
Joeboy69 Posted July 1, 2013 Posted July 1, 2013 This is very true, but very hard to do. I am battling to correct 30 years of bad eating habits...but getting better. was 88kg, now 83. Feel like a different person on the bike. I went from 95 to 82 and am maintaining ... Makes a difference but I still suffer, although goal posts shifted slightly :-) Busker 1
Joeboy69 Posted July 1, 2013 Posted July 1, 2013 No matter how slow you are, there's always someone slower than you. No matter how slow you are, you are beating the guy on the couch ... Mads, hboli4 and Busker 3
T-Bob Posted July 1, 2013 Posted July 1, 2013 Riding is like a little like wrestling a gorilla. You don't quit when you're tired-you quit when the gorilla is tired.
Mads Posted July 1, 2013 Author Posted July 1, 2013 Hey Mads, think you've learnt another thing... I bet it was awesome just to be back on the bike! Absolutely amazing.Bit of a let down to realize how much fitness l lost in a month, but l am already on it...........So hopefully I will be back to (at least) were l was. in no time.

Blue Monster Posted July 2, 2013 Posted July 2, 2013 I learned about cycling wind.When you have a head wind and turn right, you still have a head wind. Turn right, and you still have a head wind.Cycling offers more head winds than tail winds. BushGoblin and RichieT 2
Tumbleweed Posted July 2, 2013 Posted July 2, 2013 There I fixed it for you ... Hey, I've mostly stayed upright of late!
SeaBee Posted July 2, 2013 Posted July 2, 2013 Plan your training route into the wind first... That one NEVER works for me. Somehow when I turn around, 10 mins later the wind will turn... RichieT and Chro Mo 2

Good to hear, Mads. Agreed with you there, esp looking at how you came back (even stronger in my mind) from your Nov-Dec mishap. Mads 1
RockCoach Posted July 2, 2013 Posted July 2, 2013 The only time riding into the headwind thing worked for me was when it was a really strong PE wind. Then it doesn't change it's mind half way through a ride.
