I think I can't be bothered...

This weekend saw some glorious weather for the beginning of October, temperatures in the late 20’s and sunshine all day. Despite this and since the bike fit last Wednesday, I have suffered from a lack of motivation which has meant no cycling (although I have attended the usual gym classes).

I think there were a few of reasons for this: laziness, heat, upper back discomfort from the weight training class I did on Tuesday, stuff to do at home.  Having written these down, none of them are real reasons which makes me a loser. I suspect that if I had made the effort it would have been fine. Memo to self for next episode of apathy.

I cycled to work this morning, a pleasant trip taking the usual route through Abingdon and Radley which then diverted through Littlemore to Cowley as I had a meeting to attend at a different office. Although I have not tweaked things to the absolute measurements provided by Bike Dynamics there is a decent improvement in power, it remains to be seen if the back and arse ache are reduced on a long ride.

It is surprising (to me) that having enjoyed the experience of the bike fit I lost interest until this morning. Something else to think about and avoid next time.
