Another tough sunset. Dinner a la bread and coke while I watch the day turn to night. Need some magic 🍄 to enjoy it a little more. Next trip on the packing list. And my old bike. 🤣🤣

Well….they are super light and pack down small 😉

First time, ever, that I've quit a workout midway. 15-mins into the first 25m interval @ 88% of FTP, it was feeling like a 150% effort for the same duration. Something just didn't "feel" right. Dropped the power to 70% and I was still feeling pap... so stopped, climbed off and went for a shower.

That's when I saw the Garmin showed 37 hours recovery, after those 31 minutes. 

 

edit: turns out the family has all been hit by a One Day Only special... 24 hour bug. They have all been sick overnight, except me.

I wonder where Alan Hatherly spent his day on his bike.

I saw him leaving the estate we live in at 8am this morning looking splendid in his South African Champions jersey and gleaming white and black Cannondale

I on the other hand had to spend 9 hours at my computer before I could take my road bike out for a little loop around to Stellenbosch and back

Decided last week to start making time for cycling again.

Went out on Thursday afternoon.

And again on Saturday morning.

This afternoon my boy said he wanted to join so I took him for a 10km loop.

He did pretty good especially since he's on a single speed.

Bit of drama and some much welcome cloud cover and cooler weather in Jonkershoek this am.

the urban hunt for a route that gives you off road satisfaction is continuing...this city.....too much traffic...the exploring is continuing......road bike will have to wait...could so with some summer...but easy cycling weather..still good to be getting into a cycling rhythm....
