Off work but no biking for me sadly. Had keyhole surgery on my knee to clean out some cartalige last Friday. Asked the physio when I can get back to biking and martial arts and they said 4-5 weeks 👿 Don't think I can last that long I'll be pulling my hair out after two weeks.

I worked Saturday, so I have a day to take off at some point. Darn!

Today I'm working this morning, then take a couple of hours for a lunchtime swim, then see how I'm doing after that.

Hmmph

Working from home, what if someone needs you or that million dollar contract turns up and you're out cycling.

I just hate you. I'm working from home right now and a post here and there is the best I can do for free time.
Gits gits and double gits.

Actually, I commuted in on the road this morning. Very lovely it was too.

And I shall be taking the very extended, off road route home, via the resevoirs and turbines, with a play in Cragg Quarry in the middle, finishing with a few miles of quality downhill all the way home. Well actually, to the local, where I shall be having a well-earned pint

Wooooo and indeed hoooooooooooo 😀

Weather yesterday was awesome and looks to be the same today/tomorrow 🙂 Just off out for an hour on the road bike then back up to the skatepark I reckon! I can jump my bmx properly now, I never used to be able to clear this jump box 🙂

I feel like I haven't been out on the bike in ages, and it'll be a week before I can get out on it, at least. Summers finally here an all!
Working all week, judo coaching to do at nights, coaching course to go to on Saturday AND Sunday and a fitness test for my Polis application next Tuesday.
I might get out for a celebratory/consolation bike ride on Tuesday afternoon, I suppose. If I have any legs left...

Cycled into work and back Monday, had to be in 2 different places yesterday involving suit action, then track walk midnight till 4am this morning, shower now then cycle in Holborn to my opticians for lens fitting then into work for a half day. Too many meetings in different places tomorrow but might brompton it, then commute Friday - that should make it another 150 mile week.
So basically - to answer the OP, not really.

Tough, it was:

MTB this morning, scoping out routes for some mates who are coming to visit soon (found some crackers).

Road this afternoon with mate, just built him his 1st bike, so probably not far, and I'm sure there will be beer 🙂
