    Re: The Get fit club!

    I had done approximately 60 miles on bike by this time last year, in February alone. Haven't done a thing this month as the weather is awful. Not good!

    Re: The Get fit club!

    I need to do 16 miles to do 1000 miles for the year, but I'm working from 7-7 every weekday until Christmas, so not sure how I'll fit it in!

    Re: The Get fit club!

    Same here. My motivation has taken a big knock for reasons I won't go into and I can't be bothered most days. Cold weather doesn't bother me, got a good base layer which helps a lot. :)

    Unfortunately I've missed the Tour de Forth! 66 miles from Edinburgh across the Forth, then the Clackmannanshire Bridges and back to Edinburgh!
