I took Ds old Le Jeune commuter for a spin up to Rhodes Mem to try and diagnose a slipping chain on the big cog and got some heat training for free. Both of us are fine again after a cold beer and a cable clean-up respectively. Very happy not to be out there on the 1Tonner today!

On my first big solo ride. While it may seem paltry to the double century 40kph racing snakes, to me it feels like I've climbed a mountain. Having bought my first bike as an adult in mid July with literally zero exercise in the last 4 years, to exceeding my goal for the ride by 12km and 3kph average was monumental.

 

We may not have picturesque mountains, but there's some beauty to be found in JHB if you look for it. 

 

Think I'm nearing readiness for my goal of a sub-5 94.7. My legs and lungs should be OK, my chommie not so much...

That Jeffsy a tad too hot for you?  :whistling:

Hehe. I was feeling fast & loose on Pat's. Need to follow a fast guy down there. Tried to take it across to the Granite but it was not to be. Tore my shorts and kneepad on an old metal fence post. SO lucky to get away with a few grazes and bruises.

 

Wrapped it up on Saturday and Sunday night coz I'm not allowed to bleed on my fiance's white bedding.

 

All fine tho. I'm a Junkyard Dog.
