    Very wet day,had to work until 3pm then went to a local brewery with my friend Ben and we both had a pint of local Ale,it was very nice,came home and decided to go for a ride.Probably not a great idea straight after an ale but I managed to pump out 8 kiometres anyway. Tomorrows Sunday,maybe a sleep in then "hit the road". Why was the bicyclist a tee-totaller ?? Because he couldn't Handle Bars!!!

    Woke up a bit sore this morning but my teammate Aidan got me going and we both did 8km. When say 8km,where we live is on dirt roads with hills,not bitumen or bike paths. We have to avoid potholes,puddles and up and down quite steep roads. Going down is ok but uphill really tests you. Nice to go out on a bikeride with my son though. Thankyou for all your generous donations. For those who would like to donate,please keep in mind that $10 is awesome,it is the thought that counts. Whats it called when a bike rider gets mad about not riding enough kilometres,complains about car drivers not avoiding them and that their seat is so uncomfortable?? A vicious cycle!!

    Beautiful day for a ride and after 10km ride today and total of 25km for the first 3 days I am proud of myself and.happy that my body is coping well with the step up in excercise. I have more energy and I am sleeping very well indeed. Tomorrow,depending on weather,I may ramp up my kilometres and try for a 15km ride!!! By the way! Why are bank tellers not allowed to ride a Bicycle???? They tend to lose their balance!!!!!!!!

    Excited to challenge myself on how far I can cycle in October. 100km is only my first target to achieve. I want to blow that target out of the water soon. Today was a hard day at work. 10 hour shift-7am till 5pm but when I got home,rather than sitting on the couch,I jumped on the bike and smashed out my first 7km. Bit sore but I havent been on the bike this year. As the month progresses I will get stronger and go further.
