I walked out my back door today to release my road bike from the chains which restrain it overnight. As is my habit I felt the back tyre. Solid as a rock. I felt the front tyre. Solid as a jellyfish. Darn.
I went to change the tube but my front rim holds onto tyres very tightly. One of my tyre levers snapped. Darn.
I went to the shed, grabbed my mountain bike and headed off to work.
Strange thing is, even though I cycle to work and home every day without any problem, I’m finding that the muscles in my upper legs are a bit sore today. Obviously my mountain bike uses muscles differently than my road bike. I’m not sure that I’ll get the chance to fix my tyre tonight so I may be mountain biking again tomorrow.
Having the soreness in my legs reminds me that I should try to work some different muscles at times. So, if you’re in the Perth area and you want to thrash someone at squash, just let me know. I haven’t played in years but I know that I should get back onto the court sometime soon. The Morley courts are my closest but I’m sure we can find somewhere suitable if that doesn’t suit.

If we lived closer than Kelmscott, Michael would play with you! He loves playing squash.
