shoulders back, chest out.

Saturday - Couldn't wait to give my new bike it's first proper test run, after figuring out the SPD pedals (not half as scary as I'd imagined, clipping out before bailing is pretty easy). It being my first ride I was pushing it (and consequentially me) to the limit. What can I say, "wow" would be a good start. "Bloody hell it's fast" would be more descriptive. Took it along a mixture of road and off-road, keeping up with traffic along some stretches! But, after about 5 miles, I realised it was far too hot to be cycling, and I subsequently collapsed on a grass verge. (thankfully recovery was swift as I had my new Camelback).
So, what to do but get out my camera and take some "glamour" shots.

strange...but I can't wait to commute to work on Monday morning!!!
