Zar is excited!!!

I've had a strange few weeks. I was absolutely sick as a dog with the flu for 2 weeks. This meant time out from the normal routine. I really felt like I was living in an alternate universe. No work, no exercise, I couldn't eat for several days. After the flu went, I was so weak I had to recover for a whole week before I went back to work. I haven't been working out this week as I didn't want to overdo it. For me, very strange.

Then on Thursday, I did something which I've been so excited about for about 6 weeks. It was quite strange seeing as I hadn't worked out for 3 weeks. I PICKED UP MY NEW BIKE - WOOHOO!!

I went out on the dream machine yesterday for the first time and - WOW! This is so exciting. I really feel like this is going to be great for me. I'm going to start cycling to work and back once a week. I've also signed up to do the Sydney to the 'Gong bike ride which is 90km on Nov 7th. If I have this beautiful machine at my toetips, I may as well get into it. As long as I don't get hit by a car....

There is no real message in this blog, just that I'm very excited about my new bike, and my new exercise routine. Let's just see what happens when I pick up the tricky shoes in a couple of weeks.....there could be some great home video footage there!!
