I am still aiming to get Mark to have a weekly badminton match on an evening, but so far he has wimped out :p :

Badminton? Nah. And road cycling is best anyway :mark:

Suggest something else indoors then :D

If you're into incredibly boring training, get a indoor trainer for a bicycle like I did last winter. 30 minute's spinning feels like two hours. :D

Today's commute back home was best so far, hour and half of singletrack, rocky sections, deep mud and horse manure, well worth the agony of riding 11km to work on tarmac in the tractor . :D

Sounds good apart from the manure :s

I try and avoid road cycling aswel. Where will you move to in the North East? If you like forest cycling,(if you havent been already) why not try Hamsterly forest? I may even meet you there :)

New office is on the outskirts of Sunderland, so will be somewhere within commuting distance. Working down there during the week and back home at weekends until the move is finalised and I find a house to rent.

Have looked at Hamsterley already but never actually been there before.

Just rode to Sunderland and back. Almost entirely off road :) .

My bike is a hybrid so can do the likes of well maintained ex railways but not really the rallying roads which I'm sure Jamie prefers!

Great weekend: Friday football, Saturday tennis and Gym, Sunday tennis and 8 kms of jogging. If only all of them would be the same.

A good journey Mark, its been a couple of months since I did that route! Did you make it all the way to the coast line? Its about 27 miles round trip from where I am.
