My fourth time of riding to the gym and back this morning for my strength and conditioning workout.
According to Strava, I'm getting much quicker at this, having taken 5 minutes off my outward journey and 4 minutes off my homeward bound journey since the first time I did it two weeks ago.
I'm still struggling to climb the hill out of Limbrick on the way home though, but I'm always so tired from the weights workout I've just done. It's funny because, when I did this hill on my old Sunn bike during the summer, it was much easier. In fact, climbing hills in general seemed much easier on my old crappy bike. Duncan keeps telling me my new bike is miles better and, it probably is on descents, but on ascents I'm pretty sure my Sunn was better. It was built as a race bike though and it has skinnier wheels than my Saracen.
I'm really enjoying my rides to and from the gym, especially the ride there. Because it's so early and dark, I see all sorts of wildlife like foxes, owls and deer. Love it!
Total distance - 15 miles
