    I really need to get MAIG and start taking my cycling seriously again. I have a 97km race in 5 1/2 weeks, although it will be more fun than serious. My days of serious racing are over but I don't want to suffer!
    Rinse & Repeat!!

    At least tomorrow I'll ride with some mates, so that's motivation in itself.

    If you reset your alarm each time you get up, you should get tired of it and get up and go for a ride

    When I ride in I get up at 4:30 and I am out the door by 5 AM rolling down the quiet street. I leave my laptop in the docking station at work as motivation to get up and go in - I can't do my job without it and don't want to deal with the traffic driving in - so that forces me to get up and get rolling.

    Have decided I'm going to enter a two day trail race in May next year with the gf, called The Oxpecker.
    Total distance over the two days is approximately 36km, so not too strenuous.

    Rode 39 miles to and from work.

    I also hit a milestone yesterday of 1028 miles of bike commuting this year. 600 of those miles were in August and September.
