Wednesday 5 February
No cycling on Monday & Tuesday because the jury service was about to finish and I had to be prepared to take all my stuff home. We gave our verdicts on Tuesday so Wednesday was back to work day. First time in ages that I have done a full 11 mile ride in one go. It hurt! I was very slow.

Weather Report:
It was a fairly bright cold dry day. Good biking weather.

Thursday 6 February
Got up early today so that I could put the car battery on charge before I cycled to work. One less car clogging up the streets of Guildford. Sadly I had to put the battery back in when I got home so it's back in action tomorrow. Sorry, but my wife does not see cycling as a valid alternative to anything, she prefers to use the car. The ride in was a bit quicker today, but my legs felt the strain. Definitely slower than expected on the way home. I need to get my weight back down and my fitness level back up and soon!

Weather Report:
Dry and very cold this morning, drizzly (nothing serious)and very cold this evening.
