The best advice I can offer you to quit smoking is one of the things you're doing, changing a habit - the back porch thing. Another piece I can offer is on the weekly anniversary of you quitting put the money you would have spent on cigarettes into a clear plastic jar to save, it acts as a great way to show the…

Working out injured is worse than not working out. Your body needs to recover to be effective.

Quitting smoking is not as difficult as I believed it would be - because I was so determined to do it, I was determined to make sure that I improved my life, I didn't substitute for food, I started with sugar free polo's and water. I never gained weight when I first stopped, and since doing that I found this site and…

I've tried a few different sets of Shorts. Castelli - TIGHT!! Altura Ergofit - pretty comfortable Adidas Supernova - Best I've found for me But go for BIB shorts, I find they do a better job of holding it all there than just shorts.

If you listened to everything put on an internet forum about weight loss / bulking / fitness etc you'd never do anything, every 'theory' gets contradicted by another one, every theory gets re-bunked as being 'internet gossip' and rubbish, etc etc... Find what works for you and do it, otherwise you'll spend all your time…

See if you can get samples from either the web or eBay etc to try. I use USN stuff, tried the Banana and Strawberry and like both - I prefer mixing with milk rather than water.

I've got 1 - of a 6km circuit. It is rather more downhill than uphill but hey its still classed as KOM http://app.strava.com/segments/4488077

and thank you again for doing it all again. :smile: Well done to all people that gave it a go :smile: and congratulations to all those that made the podium.

Completely forgot to transfer in some riders for the last day, only had Greipel, thought I had Cav already but realised I got rid of him mid way through, and missed out putting Kittel in, however I don't think it would have made much difference to my position. Weirdly, or surprisingly this was the first time I have ever…

Smoking is completely a mental game. After deciding enough was enough, I quit 18 months ago, never looked back. Biggest regret, other than starting, was not giving up sooner. I've wasted 16 years of my life stuck with cigarettes - now I see what I've achieved without them, it is my biggest regret :(
-
Completely, 100%, the truth! You must REALLY REALLY want to quit, once you realise that you REALLY REALLY want to, it is not hard at all.
-
It's been a fun challenge, next time I will find more time to get out for longer :) Thanks to TBY for his great organisational and logging skills :drinker:

Looks a lovely machine

Each to their own I think, but don't want to give the impression that I am riding along with massive Beats on my ears not hearing a thing going on around me. If I couldn't hear the music due to wind noise last night I don't see it as a problem. Its more for background noise - if it was to cause me a distraction I wouldn't…

Had to pump the tyres up on the bike as a kid, I rarely went out for rides - so the odd time the bike came out the shed the tyres inevitably flat. I have headphones in but not loud, I can still hear things around me easily, and even hear a cycling partner telling me to speed up or slow down. For example last night I…

Helps keep the sweat away from the skin and soaking the jersey - it does work ;) granted I've gone from full sleeve to sleeveless ones this summer ;) Plus it helps stop unwanted rubbing ;)

Entry fee just put me off!! :noway:

Yes EMX-3 with Campag 11 speed I will admit I went out on it for the first time today, bloody hard work - first time on a Road bike with drop bars - getting confused with where the brakes are - odd panic moment. Overall was quicker over compared similar distances by about 1mph which isn't bad at all especially considering…

Yes they are Fulcrum Racing 5's Didn't want to upgrade to something a bit better and end up going even better in the near future thus wasting the first upgrade - as knowing me it won't take long to upgrade :)

After a lot of consideration, and looking at various different options - I chose the new bike...it is pretty much built up now- except the shop are waiting for delivery of the pedals and the Garmin cadence and mounts need fitting. The shop sent me a teaser photo (as I am out of the country until tonight).... Hopefully pick…

Weirdly I always find the corrected figures for elevation are higher than those that come out of the Garmin when uploaded. Maybe its where I live - who knows.
-
I'll be logging on Garmin Connect - should I submit the elevation numbers with the correction enabled or not? - or as the machine spews it out?

Do you weigh yourself on the same set of scales at the same time of day each time?
