... it with alcohol. Today I'm really struggling to get going... The plan was to break it up with shopping for a nice pair of black jeans for Cardiff next weekend but I think that might be the only thing I do today !! (lol)

It is very comfortable. I didn't have any issues with the SX either commuting or touring, but the Versys is the next step up.

... I've stepped up 10kg on my squats. I'm over cautious about failing but I reckon there's another 15kg to play with before I get into trouble. Next time I squat I might see if there's anyone around to spot me.

Rode it in the rain.

Good weather protection. I might put the screen up a little bit higher next time it's raining. The bike ted to drift a bit on the wet roads but that's down to the tyres more than the bike. Plus my lack of confidence in the rubber didn't help.

No idea on the tyres. I've not looked.

Run in and serviced by the end of next week.

I need to sort out the pick up date for the Versys. I had agreed this afternoon but I can't make it.

I also need to sort out the insurance for the bikes. I doubt I'll get any money back but it should be much cheaper next year.

Starting next month. Given the amount of time passed since the last time i visited a gym and the size of my belly, i have feeling i will die the next day after my first training session

Be interested to see what you think of the Tiguan Tony - that's in the frame for Mrs Gees next car, apparently the Golf is too low for her, I'm looking at The Tig or Yeti in 3-6 months. The Tiguan is a better drive than the X1. The X1 was a harsh ride compared, pedals ...

... spinning up for balancing it was a tad grindy ha ha.... (blush) Note to self, don't be Such a tight arse and replace the tyres a little sooner next time..... It think in fairness the weird wear was down to the foot pump. It has a gauge on it, but it is incorrect, so I have now discovered.

... school rep team. She finished mid pack but still proud as punch. Then when we left she wanted to go back to school (could've just come home) and next thing I knew 2 mums had gifted me their daughters to drop back at school too, along with their phone numbers for play dates. It's quite good being ...
