To the Start

Saturday 2nd March is the day that my Tour de Fitness commences with the purchase of my first bike in about 30 years! After much deliberation over supplier, bike and financing (self or work plan) I came away today, from Exeter's Bike Shed with a new shiny, Specialised Crosstrail Sport Disc -2013.

This afternoon, I took it for a gingerly two mile familiarisation ride down to the beach and back. I can't believe how unfit I am. The rest of the afternoon is spent lying on the sofa watching Top Gear on iPlayer .. I love cars!
