Well just the one cavalier actually, El's Mum has come down for two weeks to help us adjust to life with our little addition. Dot (El's Mum), El, Ava, Eze and myself (in that order as it happens) are all doing well....BUT with the arrival of Dot I can now get back to training for our little end2end trip, even though it is still on the Turbo Trainer. Can't go too far just yet and the roads around central London are so poor you really do need to ride out into the green belt to get a decent ride, that or Richmond Park again and even that is an hour away. So today and a couple of times earlier this week I've been on the CycleOps. 2 hours today, but no real idea how far or what speed but it feels like a decent ish pace and it really feels like it is doing me some good. It's better than doing nothing that's for sure. Still I feel like I'm miles away from where you guys are in terms of road miles and I guess I'll never truly catch up so I'll just have to do as much as I can. One thing about the Turbo Trainer though is that yes it's not like riding on the road at all BUT I reckon it's great for a little weight loss. Ava still thinks it's hilarious her daddy going nowhere fast in the kitchen on a bike that doesn't move...she just laughs at me.....I guess it's something I'll have to get used to and at least she is still too young to be embarrassed by me....that's still to come....and boy will I get my own back then. Happy Days. COYB.
