Posts have been lacking over the last couple of weeks, the first week was due to lack of motivation and the second week has just been busy. I’m not sure where I lost the drive to cycle or get to the gym as often but it happened so I should just get on with it now.
This week has been a good training week and my diet has been much more controlled. I need to lose at least a kilo; every gram that I have to haul up a hill will be regretted next May. If I want to take more equipment, I will have to lose the weight to compensate for that. I still haven’t managed to do a test pack yet so I have no idea how much harder it will be to peddle, no doubt my weight budget will be a moving feast for a while.
I had an early meeting in Abingdon today so thought I would try the A34 to see what a busy dual carriage way is like. In fairness, it was fine, there is plenty of room between the verge and the white line, trucks tend to give you a bit of room and I never felt vulnerable. The road seems a lot bigger compared to sitting in a car doing 90.
I am planning to do some more hill training for a couple of hours on Saturday to keep my legs ticking over.
