Mountain Biking
Well we bought our bikes almost 2 weeks ago now and we’ve been out just once on them for a 45 minute ride (which I swear the wind was against us regardless of direction!). The first weekend I didn’t have time to go out and this weekend I again have to go away tomorrow for business in London on Monday. It’s frustrating as I really want to get out on them, but at present we wouldn’t really have much time anyhow what with Dave wanting to watch every football match on TV! I guess another week and the 3 matches a day will be over, giving us more spare time again.
I’ve also been meaning to get onto my trampette which has just been gathering dust recently, however I seem to have a problem with my right foot as it keeps seizing up and is painful to walk on at times. I’ve had this feeling in my foot for a few months now, at first just coming on after walking a lot but now I get it in the house too. However I’m drawing a line under everything come Monday and once I’m back home on Tuesday I’ll be going on the trampette every other day and once the football slows down a little we’ll hopefully get out on the bikes in the evenings for even a short ride.
We have some info on some great cycling trails around Chester so I’m looking forward to perhaps taking one day a week to go out for a quiet day away from work.
