Anyone getting out recently, been out for a load of 50's with the lads not ventured out further like into Wales just the normal, shaleys, ashurst, stoney lane, parbold loops. My climbing is on a different level after after losing weight, and I'm really loving it, I was always near the back at climbs and I keep thinking in back of my mind, that it might go back to normal and I'm going to struggle but every time I get on my first climb, it's still there, this new ability to pass people who for years have left me behind on climbs, still can't beat the really good climbers but I've easily jumped into the top half, which will do me and I'm improving, going up Shalleys other day one lad who really fancies himself, turned around and condenscendingly goes, Albie's flying up, just before it ramps up at the end, I'd been riding within myself just staying on his wheel, so I just pushed on hard bit and left him for dead, really satisfying although on the whole just made up to have improved, not into all that sort of thing normally just enjoy the laugh and getting out
