Fitness wise. I got out on my bike yesterday, for the first time in a couple of weeks. (let no-one tell you that retired folk spend their time doing nothing and have lots of free time to enjoy).

I managed to do about eight miles. At my age it doesn’t take a lot of time off the bike for any fitness previously built up to evaporate and my stamina to return to its previous low level. Hopefully the weather has improved enough to allow me to get out at least every couple of days. That is until I go off on holiday at the end of next week and I have another set-back. If I want to take any multi-day trips this summer I really do need to get the practice in.
