be arsed to go out riding just recently? Ive got the day off work,the suns shining and i just cant be arsed to get out the door.Been like this for a couple of weeks now.Harumpfff.
Having experienced a similar situation a few months back, a couple of good things I found
1 - Buy some new tat/ bling for your bike
2 - Go back to basics. I went back and rode trails I hadn't ridden since I first started out as I didn't consider them challenging anymore but there was a lot of joy to ride somewhere that you didn't have to think about and I discovered some new trails in the area.
make the effort even if you don't want to - you'll probably enjoy it. Just wish I could escape the office
I'm right here too feeling the same. I've ordered a new chain and I'm going to do some work on my rear mech and hopefully that will inspire me....
Another tip. Watch some biking dvds. Roam & Seasons always get me up for riding.
Yeah like Bob said or even just run your normal loop but backwards..
Shiny stuff does help, but Pook I struggle getting excited about a new chain, thats just one of them bstad things that usually requires another £30+ you didnt want to spend!!
fix all those niggling issues on your bike.
