New Year - New Post

Well its now 2013 and I have got around to adding some more posts. I had made a half-hearted attempt a month or so ago, but the past few months have been difficult and busy.

My wife has significantly recovered from her illness but is still not 100%. As a result I have been cycling a bit less and spending some more time with her. In addition with the clocks changing and the short days there is no opportunity to commute to work. I have been riding a bit but the miles have dropped off recently, and as I write today we have about 15cm of snow and ice which looks like it will be around for some time.

Looking back at 2012 despite some issues I did manage to achieve my 5000 miles target, by a few 100 miles or so which was very satisfying again. This is the 3rd year in a row that I have achieved this. An additional challenge during 2012 was the 2½ weeks in the US in the summer off the bike, although I believe I would not have cycled in the UK either given the torrential rain we had for that period.

Here is the Strava 2012 summary:



I have taken advantage of the colder weather and been doing some DIY around the house and garden over the past few months as well.
