Had a great year last year, just shy of 5k miles including my first 200k audax.
Having a really bad year time and motivation wise – nearly all my riding has been commuting to work or easy trails with the kids.
I can ride on road at 12mph, or off road at 8mph, for roughly a one hour period.
Everything else just leaves me feeling physically and mentally exhausted and ready to sell all my bikes. Wasn’t sure whether to ride this morning or just hide under the duvet. Did manage a play round the local country park.
And I am sick to the back teeth of cold headwinds. Properly, utterly fed up of it.
