god it's a slog

went for a ride this morning - first since great perth bike ride. i am finding it a real slog to get on the bike. my bum hurts, i am unfit (from lack of riding) and i ride at my max just getting the pedals to move.

rode 30km today (24:6) with a stop at brewha in the middle. did a simple loop from home to burswood, around the river to UWA and then up to Subi. Coming home i head down to the railway bike path, go to leederville and then ride up Oxford St to mount hawthorn.

while it wasnt too hot today there was a slight breeze blowing (and i mean slight) but even that was giving me the S...s.

I have now covered 3715km.

on the brighter side of life i was able to go for a ride, to see the river and to enjoy the city and kings park when others are unable to do this for various reasons (work, at war, laid up) so i really should not winge too much
