The inner Nanna lives!

If only you could have all seen me on Saturday morning. The girls are on school holidays so no netball, Aaron was also home to watch all the kids and I was determined to go for a ride on Saturday morning. I ate a good dinner, went to bed early (got woken by teenage children, who I can guarantee will never be noisy after I have gone to bed again). I was up early, had some breaky, pumped up Stella's tyres and lubed up the chain.. she wasn't talking to me but I could see a little smile on her dial.. Then off to get dressed..

One pair of warm fluffy socks, one pair of sandwich bags on the fluffy socks then another thin pair of socks (right feet should be toasty) One tri suit, one three quarter length cycling knicks, one long sleeve winter jersey and one short sleeve club jersey. two earwarmers, full finger gloves with a pair of short gloves over the top.. I look like a nanna but I am warm.

The 70km ride was definately harder than I remember... I am just going to have to stop being such a princess and get back on the bike.. a few spin bike classes for this little black duck me thinks to find her cycling legs!

  2. You are a better woman than I am. I will need to try the sandwich bags on the feet to stay toasty...
