I’ve changed the status of my underused old skool rigid Specialized Hardrock from ‘ornament’ to ‘bike’ in the last couple of days. This is partly because I need the exercise, partly because it’s not raining, but mostly because I really like getting outside and into the countryside if I can.
I have no car this weekend so the only way to go anywhere was on my bike… so I dusted it off and rode the Clyde Walkway to Chatelherault Country Park then rode out to the farthest bridge and back home. I loved it and really need to get out on my bike much more.
Obviously I won’t be able to walk tomorrow…
Good on you, Stewart. Hope the bike enjoyed it as much as you seem to have!
Next thing you’ll be wanting to come for a jaunt up & down Glentress!
Glentress… Now that’s an idea…
I never found the walking part after a bike ride to be so much of a problem…. but sitting down, that’s the toughie!
And the clawhammer-style saddles don’t make one blind bit of difference.
Cycling shorts John… And no, not public lycra wearing. A sensible pair of MTB shorts are a must!
