It's good to see a young person working hard

My tongue is firmly in my cheek here but you knew that didn't you?

30 mile bike ride this morning and I went for it. Probably a decent time but 6 minutes slower than the same ride 2 years ago. I shouldn't be surprised, I'm two years older and past the point where older means fitter and stronger, 7lb heavier and less cycle fit. Of course none of this makes me feel any better about it but I probably need to get used to the idea or take up competitive knitting and get rid of the bikes.
