Once again not much to report this week due to the wet weather. THE Coach and his cycling mate, Phillip, rode to Parramatta very early this morning. I peaked out from under the covers to see THE Coach wearing legwarmers and sleeves, so that was enough of a weather warning to keep me snuggled under the bed-covers reading the Sunday papers for another hour.
A solo ride this morning through lots of puddles. At least I managed to stay on my bike to complete the Drummoyne, Five Dock, Canada Bay loop - only 24kms with a slow average speed of 17kms. I kept any eye out for hills, not that there are many round here, and made a few quick detours to test my knees. It's now less than a month till we head off to the hills of the Dordogne. Yikes!

I think a snuggle under the blankets with the papers was a very good idea. This means you are well rested for the next cycling session.
ReplyDeleteHappy cycling Jenny P.
So true. Thanks for your comment Trude, opps WerriB.
ReplyDeleteLove your work! Turning the pages of the newspaper is also a good upper body workout.
ReplyDeleteWith all this idle activity there could be lots of uphill battles coming up in France.
ReplyDeleteRegarding the search for a hill, a suitable one has been found close at hand:the southern end of Lilyfield Rd in Lilyfield. Recommended regimen is 6 times up and down 3 times a week.It's not too late!!!
Thanks Fi, I like the idea of a newspaper workout. My Saturday morning routine.
ReplyDeleteOkay Coach! Yes, that's a new goal and with it might come a new reward? There is a cafe at the top of that hill.
And plenty more farther away
ReplyDeletethats a great part of Sydney,.... My family live right on that walk! xx
ReplyDeleteDear Jen
ReplyDeleteDropped by the blog today to see if coach had got you to train in the rain. So far it looks like sense prevailed. I hope you worked out with Sunday papers, a big Sunday breakfast and a rest this afternoon. XXX
