Wow,! Is your bike holding up?
Just about!

It's hard though, it's bloody hard to get motivated when it's 2 degrees....![]()
Summer is coming!

I've got a fucking cold right now. I feel fine, but I'm coughing up all sorts of gunge.
I've not cycled since mid-October. I can't be doing with cycling in the dark or the cold. I've been running though. Not as much as I did in Australia, but around twice a week outdoors, plus the gym. I'm 7kg heavier than I was in May though!! It's outrageous! However I'm not fat like the Fat Freddie period. My clothes fit me just as well as they did 7kg ago; whereas 18 months ago they didn't. Apparently my body fat percentage is 18.5% which I think is borderline acceptable.
I need to get into shape though because I'm hopefully climbing a wee hill in April.
I've made another potential life change as well - currently on day 7 - but I won't say what it is until I'm at least 3 months in. That way when I fail I can just lie.

Glad to hear that fat Freddie isn't back!![]()
You've either given up drink or red meat?

Just red meat? What sort of half-arsed pathetic effort would that be?! No, I've gone full leftie (not FULL leftie, obviously).

Oh no. You will live longer, you just won't want to!
