Same happened to me... Hummus was my problem, we are no longer on speaking terms :#

I've put 3 stone on since going vegan nearly 2 years ago. I blame all the lovely vegan food! (and some personal issues) I'm at a stage again where I am actively looking to get back somewhere near where I was.

I'm vegan but i don't like to tell anyone :D

Vegan here for the last 8 months. I aim for C:80 F:10 P:10 but find I'm regularly over with the fat (need to limit my nut intake!)

"When you're younger, you can eat what you like, drink what you like, and still climb in to your 26-inch-waist trousers and zip them closed. Then you reach that age- 24, 25- your muscles give up, they wave a little white flag, and without any warning at all, you're suddenly a fat *kitten*." - Carter USM

Too far for me to sorry Cloggsy, and i've got a sportive lined up for the Sunday. What about a group outing to somewhere like the Alps next year?

Hey, you said you wouldn't tell!

If they're that accommodating then spend it on beer and women, don't waste it!

It was an honour to be the Captain of the #1TeamTwo. A clean sheet with each and every member doing their bit is a rare entity! A BIG Thank-You to the organiser TBY and his minions ;) :drinker: without whom these challenges would not be as special as they are. As planned, this challenge was exactly what i needed to…

Flat calm, nice ride but still too bloody cold!

It's very Rare that it's as pleasant as it was this morning!

Took advantage of the beautiful weather this morning and chose the more hilly but far more scenic route into work this morning, t'was a bit foggy in the lower parts of the road though; This was the difference a few meters higher!

Right, I need a major kick up the jacksie to get back on it as i have committed to a sportive and a MTB race for September and this might just be what i need to get back on track, beam me up Scottie ;) TBY Edit - Confirmed on 311 - welcome back.

Thanks for the support guys, i'm sure i'll be riding at some point but just not with any consistency or guarantee, it's not fair on my fellow team mates to take a place which someone else more willing could take, but if you are stuck then i will happily fill a void if need be although i doubt that will be an issue.

I'm honoured that you have pencilled me in my usual place but to be honest i don't think i can commit? there's still lots of stuff for me to organise to get my life back to some form of normality. I hope that my house purchase comes through in the next few weeks so i will hopefully be busy getting that in order, then…

I couldn't care any less about Strava KOM's, its all about personal progress "Strive to improve". A Change in wind direction/speed and even traffic can make a massive difference in the ability to get a KOM anyway so it will never be an indication of ability. I would like to ride a segment that has been ridden by a PRO…

"Ai'll be Bach" (We'll done to jakess1971) looking forward to the next challenge when I hope to be more settled??

Most of us can accept it as intended... a bit of banter, but not everyone will read it in the same way and i think TBY just doesn't want to make this seem to be an exclusive challenge for the mentally unstable absolute nut-jobs of cyclists who think that 100km commute to work is normal, but more of fun and friendly open to…

This is what early Sunday mornings are made for;

So moreish i had to cycle 70km again the next day just to get my fix!

Beautiful flat calm on the reservoir on my commute to work yesterday; It was such a nice day that i extended my commute home to go down to the sea & enjoy one of the most luchest icecreams you will ever taste, "Joe's ice-cream" (they're an italian family as well!) moved to Wales in 1922 and quickly established themselves,…

Took a gentle stroll down to my mums after work on the local sustrans path, decided to take the MTB as its only a short distance and i don't have to wear any "special" clothes/shoes.

Got chased in by these guys this morning... Soaked during the journey but nearly dry (apart from my feet) by the time i got into work.
