Long time....no blog....I know, I know..
Lucky for me the ''BFSB'' is on holiday so hasn't noticed her lack of bedtime reading..
My lack of updating is due to the fact that I've murdered my PC...don't ask me how... and not because I haven't been doing anything (although if the truth be told I haven't done very much!)I'm now in negotiations with our lovely IT man and if he can't fix it, no-one can..
Was meant to do the 'Tour de Jersey' yesterday but decided against it so was flying along the roads at 7am yesterday morning to get a cycle in before it started. It's so lovely at that time of the day. I'm nearly tempted to make it a regular affair but it's a tad too early for a Sunday don't you think?
Had another flat experience yesterday when I went to pick up my V10.....what is it with me and flats?!
''OFF'' may get around to giving me a service at some stage but I'm not holding my breath...he's difficult to pin down...and even then he doesn't always turn up when he should...don't you just hate inconsistency!!
You could never describe me as such!!!
''BFSD'' arrives tomorrow for a week and has said that I can expect to cycle every evening...we'll see about that!!
Back to gym tonight, got to get spinning soon...

Day 1 - Saturday 10th February 2007
Today is the first day of my countdown to my Cycle Vietnam challenge in November. Today I have: a. set up a fund raising page at http://www.justgiving.com/siobhanmartina b. set up this blog to track my training progress and no doubt many frustrations; and c. started my training. It has to be said that I'm feeling a tad righteous! In saying that I feel that I have to mention that my training took place on my exercise bike at home....come on!!...it's far too cold and wet for the real thing! I'm looking at about April for that!!! I've set myself a goal of doing at least 1 hour on the bike every day and have had the most wonderful idea of how to get over the tedium of getting nowhere slowly! Yes... I'm going to watch the whole series of 'The Sopranos'....series 1-6 in fact! When I've finished these I'll then move onto '24' ...again...every series available on DVD. But panic not my sweets, amongst all this toil, I will also be going to the gym....I'll be the one with the very pink cheeks at Fitness First! How come some girls look great exercising and some look like...well....me?! My stats on the bike for today were: RPM - 72 / SPEED - 28 / TIME - 60 mins / DISTANCE - 26.48 / CALORIES - 599 ( = 1 Mint Aero & 1 Ripple!) But as the old saying goes, 'The best laid plans of mice and Siobhans' or as my lovely Mother would say, 'The road to hell is paved with good intentions!'. Till next time...
