I've been having problems getting onto my Blog to update due to cookies. Seems to be sorted now.

I've also had the challenge of not eating the multitude of home made cookies, baked by my daughter. But after the short lay off due to illness I feel I need to be more cautious than ever.

Last nights sessions went well, and it was good to be out on the road again. It is heart breaking to see the beautiful sunshine all day only to have to wait until 9pm before going for a ride though. Plus of course Fridays nights in South London seems to be when the youth in their pimped Honda Civics drive with their brains in their trousers.

I did the intervals along my usual road, it is a false flat and always into the wind. It means despite putting in maximum effort I cannot maintain 25 mph for the two miles, something I always find depressing. Of course when I turn at the roundabout, and head back, I can maintain 23 mph despite dropping down into recovery HR zone. That always cheers me up.

I'm sure it's human nature, but now nearing the end of the month, when I have the least amount of money in my account (thank you dentist!) my mind turns to new wheels. A Zipp 1080 rear and 808 front would be great for the attempt.

Never mind, I can't afford to buy time. I need to earn it, which as people tell me, is far more rewarding.
