So who does what? At the moment I'm biking every other day and going to the gym a few times a week, plus doing lots of core stability work. Also, any opinions on which is best for sailing - cycling or running? |

I'm told his canoe sank because he had a small stove in it to keep him warm and it burnt a hole in the bottom. Just goes to prove you can't have your Kayak and heat it.

Well, at 45 (nearly 46) I thought I got to adulthood a couple of years ago.....I get to go sailing most days cos a) I instruct and b) I am too lazy to have a proper job... I sailed a solo once. Now I sail a contender - definitely an adult boat! |

| I went for an off road ride yesterday - nice and muddy with lots of puddles. Pushing those pedals has to be excellent prep for pushing out on the wire! |

I managed a very elegant pitchpole, weeeeheeey all the way over the handlebars!! Came back goooey brown, covered in slimey mud, full speed through the built-up area. Massive grin Can't beat that feeling on land!

I've just come back from an off-road bike ride. Wet clay and mud is like riding on ice, with the back wheel slipping all over the place. Posted By: winging it
