You lurk in more newsgroups than I!

I do about 10.5 miles if it's just cycling to/from work. Most I've done in a day this year is 112
(and that only two weeks after returning to cycling from my hernia op.)

I think perhaps we need sub-groups, though.

Yes, but cycling has limits imposed by its physical demands, unlike say fishing or model making, so
it leaves a large part of the day left for scoffing, quaffing and waffling.

Been out 4 times on the bike (well, actually on two different bikes) today -- clocking up about 12
miles. I hope to get out tomorrow for a gentle 25 and will do a club run on Sunday that should
clock up 60+

There's submarines powered by cyclists nowadays? How quaint!

I try to do 100+ per week in the summer months, but usually fail. Been hit with some bug for last 2
months that leaves me tired quite a lot. I go out some days & feel fine, but then I feel poorly
again for a few days, sore throat, mild headache etc. So should I stop trying for a for weeks & try
to fully recover before cycling again.

On a different note, a bought a new (to me) MTB on ebay last month, a top spec Marin. Done about 120
miles in 4 separate rides, mostly on the rough stuff thru' the Chiltern bridleways. However, I've
noticed I seem to be a tad faster on the road bike since. Is this because I need to use extreme
amounts of energy to climb so of those "them there hillls". My HRM said I had put in nearly 3 times
the "effort" for a 35 mile MTB ride agaist a 37 mile road ride! It ceratinly makes a change, so
hopefully I'll be challenging Lance next year (providing of course, he has a lead frame bike, both
feet tied together, only 1 very low gear, no team, no food and has a generally bad time; I just
might keep up then).

Back to the real world, Niv.

A genuinely side splitting joke then ;-)
