But still everything moving in the right direction.....

Quiet week. Not done much other than work and parenting. All good.

That'll do me.

A week of intense work and a very mild gastro thing meaning a few missed meals.

Also more Ice Bath fun, a game of squash and a walk or two.

Beginning of Jan - 119.7kg 17-01-25 - 119kg 24-01-25 - 120kg Meh. Just a little upturn. Not done anything different to the usual this week but put a little on. :roll: I'm on day 06 today of using a little plunge tub thing I borrowed from friends to do a quick ice bath each day. It's been pretty cons...

---- Starting Weight ---- 04/01/25: 75.0kg (Heaviest I've been for over 12 years!) :shock: In 2005/6, after spending a year living in a grass hut in Malawi (no electricity, no running water etc...), I dropped 1/4 of my body weight to go from my (then) heaviest ever weight all the way down to 76kg :...

Hey, no problem and no, not difficult to quantify at all. Vastly improved sleep, much much less 'recovery eating', obviously no hangovers and the absence of days of general background anxiety following big nights out. I've always been very binary with drinking. Totally ok with zero intake BUT.....if...

Today's weigh-in..... Beginning of Jan - 119.7kg 17-01-25 - 119kg I'll take that given how little exercise I've done. Now at 4.5 months of zero booze and really enjoying it and feeling the benefit. Although I'm very much unmotivated to attend pretty much every social event that comes up but that's m...

Right then, I might as well throw my (oversized) hat in the ring once again this year. But first here's a look back at my efforts (HA!!!) in this thread (life) thus far..... 2017 Start: 110kg End: 109kg 2018 Start: 111kg End: 113kg 2019 Start: 115.7kg End: ??? 2020 Start: 118kg End: 113kg 2021 Start...

I did. And I can. I'm flat-out this morning but at lunch I'll reply further.....

Just saw this in the latest Tuscany Trail newsletter email: Bikepacking is not just a way to move from one place to another but is more like an art that weaves together the freedom of bicycle travel with the minimalism of living with what you can carry. Not as bullsh1t as it appears upon first glanc...

Afternoon folks, Not long now (5 weeks or so) until my 10th year in a row of riding the Tuscany Trail. Although.....strictly speaking I've not actually entered this year. For my 10th outing I wanted to put together my own personal 'Greatest Hits' route. I've ridden some / all of this event / route w...

i can put loads of routes together making the distance and height. but the one we have planned is a continuous climb with no descents. https://cycle.travel/map/journey/539632 we are in training................... :lol: :lol: Mate, you are in for a treat!!! That whole area is absolutely stunning. I ...

Ok. I'm in. No idea how frequently I'll post as I've not been particularly vigilant about weighing myself of late. Here's how January has gone: 01-01-24 - +/-122kg (didn't weigh but was there just after Christmas) 17-01-24 - 118.8kg 25-01-24 - 118.6kg 26-01-24 - 118.3kg The reason for the big drop w...

Oh well, I was in first place for a day!

Taken in Siena during this year's Tuscany Trail event. If I make it it'll be my tenth consequitive year in '24 :-bd Let's call this photo: '3 bikes against a wall' https://scontent-man2-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t39.30808-6/406401603_10161565362155656_7283309742792148090_n.jpg?stp=dst-jpg_p180x540&_nc_ca...

Huh. I've just noticed (whilst posting in see thread) that I have no curser either.

Oooh, no it's back.

That was weird.

But shows it's a 'something' that's going on, no?

How rude!!!

But yeah, not terrible advice.

Hey dude, give me a shout if you'd like to chat options (either message on here or email on: simplegairy(at)gmail(dot)com - as currently taking a break from social media so no Instagram message access).

There's quite a bit of riding to be had.....

Vivid (VERY!!!) memories of my two BB200 holidays (2014+2015).... Fun. Long. Tired. Laughing and chatting with nice folk. Saddle sores. Dark. Absolutely hilarious random smattering of humans scattered far and wide all trying and failing to find a rideable anything on the ground whilst traversing an ...
