I have been feeling rather under the weather of late but have taken a turn for the better in the past couple of days so decided to dust off the turbo trainer.
The velo has been languishing in the office so first job was to move all the crap that I’d stored on it.
When I climbed on it I wasn’t happy with the feel of the ride so I’ve removed the rocker plate and set the turbo directly on the floor. I’ve put the rocker plate on eBay so there’s no going back !

In the process of moving the bike and getting it set up I managed to acquire this chain wheel impression.
All sorted and with MyWhoosh running on my wall mounted monitor in front of the bike, I brought my total for the day up to a meagre 2.74 miles with my bum on the saddle for just over fifteen minutes.
It’s a start.


I’ve just got off the bike (second day running – or should that be cycling) after another seventeen minutes and covering a virtual 3.6 miles.
I’m happy with that as I don’t want to overdo it and put myself back.
