Just got the bike back from it's 1st service & I'm raring to go
She's looking very nice
Sorry couldn't resist & Jack kept getting in the way of the shot
If the 20 miler go's OK , i could be tempted with the other ride you are doing if that's OK , Been told by the doc i need to work my heart more - So cardio vascular work out's it is from now on

Think 20 mile straight off might be a bit much for me 
, Perha[ps we should just try 10 miles for starters then

Went for a little trail ride along the local sea wall today to see my grandparents.
10 miles off road was nice and gentle
Not interested in doing any road riding guys, bores me and toss on an XC bike. If you do any off road stuff i'll be up for some trails
Odo clocked up over 100 miles in total on her now. Not bad for something i dont do long journeys on

guys, after speaking to someone at work who does club riding etc, he reckons padded shorts are definately a whole lot better than the gel seats.

Yup, can vouch for these, wore a nice pair of Fox Racing chamois shorts today. My seat is a FIZ;IK Gobi which looks like a razor blade. Pretty comfy anyway and fine with my shorts. It will take a while before your sit bones harden to any saddle anyway. Its just a case of grinning and baring the pain and it will get better.
