spinning experience!

[boxal...@ukgateway.net]

Hi everyone

Just to say that I should be signing up for L to B-just haven’t quite done it!

 

I am so unfit though, a change of career and winter is not a good mix! I am desperate to cycle again but get so cold, so signed up for a spinning class at the sports centre.

Have any of you done this? Rachel,Sam?

Well, never again! What a horrible way to cycle! The lights went done, the music blared and off we went! Only we didn’t ‘go’ anywhere! No view, no birds, no wobbles and no traffic- good and bad things to miss. I will just have to wait a bit longer for the weather to warm up and start training!

 

Hope to see you soon

Dear flipper....

 

I read your email before going to work the other day and I'm afraid to say it tickled me immensely!

I envisaged you in raver white gloves a whistle and hi-viz jacket making some shapes in the training session!

 

I have been cycling to work where possible, but unfortunately I'm having a lot of painful knee problems so I'm going in bursts. I know it costs but I invested in some good gear including, thermal cycling tights...windproof gloves and waterproof cycling socks. Super snug and really make a difference in the cold. As you say cycling indoors is nowhere near the same as real cycling.

 

Alternatively, now that I have a new road bike I bought myself an indoor bike trainer stand for my old bike. You can buy them fairly cheaply on amazon. Again, it's not the same as cycling outside but quite a nice alternative to joining a class, you can train for as long as you like, listen to what you want etc...

Personally I like a morning spin in my living room on my indoor trainer with a cup of tea and a bit of Jeremy Kyle!!

 

Hope this helps!

Hi Fi

You are lucky to be able to cycle to work and it’s a good ride with hills o will be very fit now!1

I didn’t know about a stand for my bike so that would be a good compromise!

Have you got the skinny tights and bib thing as well? can’t imagine it!

Pub soon!  well maybe  while yet!

Just finished assignment and starting another.

Take care
