yep used to ride to work 5 days a week then go fro a spin around on the week-end.
Then i changed my job and started working in Brisbane, takes me 1.5 hours to drive into the city in the morning on a good day and about 2 hours to get home. So i had to leave home when it's dark and got home after dark. Did that everyday for 5 years and was just stuffed when i got home.
Ah but now i have a new job closer to home, (about 15 -20min drive) so still got plenty of daylight before and after work so slowly, slowly getting back into it again.
I used to ride hard, then I got a desk job...

Oh yeah, this is certaintly me. This is home for me. 2004, was a bike courier, would be riding all day in-between running up stairs/down malls/past mail rooms in super fit condition. Got a job at the casino, stopped riding, but kept the same diet, which was anything the hell I liked! Result - extra 15kg's. Been back into it for about a year, on/off.
But just recently stopped smoking for first time in 12 years, so exciting to see how/if, my body recovers.

Oh that is so me! What is it with sitting at a computer all day that makes you so tired?
I remind my colleagues that I was fit when I started then my muscles slowly atrophied over the past 7 years. :(

Jason Brown on Thursday, 14 July 2011 15:27Heh. I was about 24 when I changed career and got a desk job. I managed to ride to work for a few months before the rot set in.
Stay in the saddle!
