What a gorgeous morning! Not that it started off that promisingly... I woke up late and have lost half my cycling gear (by which I mean lycra) and it wasn't until I got into wiork this moirniong that I rememberd that it's all nicely tidied away in my Jeep. Nevermind, I donned my emergency set of lycra (break glass only in the event of emergency etc) and had a truly lovely cycle in over Devil's Dyke this morning.
Thank you very much to all those of you who suggested music for my iPod. It's still on shuffle, by my playlist this morning was:
Cornershop - Brimful of Asha
Gorillaz - Feel Good Inc
Air - Ce Matin-La
Coldplay - Speed of Sound
Coldplay - Yellow
Keane - Is it any Wonder
Chris Cornell - Steel Rain
Frank Zappa - Status Back Baby
B-52s - Love Shack
Sorry Helen - no Rage against the Machine - possibly on the way home though! So anyway, I'm not sure I would have picked those particular tracks before I set out, but the more mellow ones seemed to play on the flat as I speeded past the little lambs and the loud sing-along ones....when i was out of tune and puffing in traffic jams... Good fun though.
Feeling good this morning too. Last week was a bit of a write off in the end. I cycled in on Monday, but Wednesday was too foggy (life insurance not in place yet) and on Friday I dropped my gorgeous little daughter off and watched her assembly, so had to drive in or look decidedly dodgy in a Primary School and then arrive late for work. The good newsis that I think the rest has done me the power of good. I feel restored and full of beans. I think maybe I'd been pushing a bit hard in the previous couple of weeks. So maybe a rest wasn't a bad thing.
Michael and I are delighted to be over the £1,000 mark, and thanks to Uncle Derek for the latest sponsorship! Am idly considering hitting the accountants of Brighton & Hove this week. ...with a mailshot, obviously, mind you, if I'm on my bike I'll be able to outrun them...(so long as I can clip my shoes into my pedals quickly - I haven't mastered that without looking like a dork)
Fingers crossed also for some photos this week!! Any requests for poses etc?!
