Well, where to start?
The move has finally happened. After some last minute shenanigans, contracts were finally exchanged Wednesday afternoon, which resulted in frantic phone calls to all of the utilities to ensure we were connected, as we completed on Thursday!
The only cycling I managed was to ride my bike from the old house to the new one, I simply ran out of room in the van!!.
I might not have cycled much, but I have however had a really good few days building strength and endurance.....
Taking loaded boxes and furniture out of one house, onto the lorry, and into the new house ( and even then re-arranging positions, rooms and transferring boxes from garage up to the loft) !
After 4 18+ hour days straight things are nearly there, and I am a physical wreck. My aches and pains have their own aches and pains !
Here is a good tip....
If you don't have to move, DON'T MOVE !!!!!
Also, and meaning to sound sexist here, women are great at packing boxes, and un packing, but have no sense of taking into account the weight of the box that is going to be carried by someone else !!
Going to finish sorting out the house as we have builders starting in the next week or so, so I doubt I'll get out for a ride anytime soon, but I have found out that my new neighbour is a bit of a cyclist, so I might've found a training partner.
It's wierd, but cycling 300 miles in 2 days is infinitely more attractive than moving house !
Until next time.
