This is just to let you all know that I have ridden "Lilly" the little lilac bike all the way to work and back today. I can honestly say, hand on heart, it nearly killed me!
I have also resigned myself to the fact I will now be walking like John Wayne for the next week or so, and boy is my backside tender....ooo ouch!! On the plus side though, I have saved Bus fair, plus it will get me fit, if it doesn't see me off first!

Thanks Paul, I was just thinking about tomorrow, I will be a brave and ride through the pain!
How far is it to work, Debbie?
Hi Halfie, now promise you won't laugh, it's just over a mile away! I rode in and home again today. Will you just encourage me and tell me the pain will stop soon!!Please! I think I will need an Epidural to ride tomorrow. I am determined to keep it up though, I have saved £4:40 in bus fairs up to now!
Debbie.
Debbie, laugh, moi? Perish the thought!
My advice would be: give yourself plenty of time so you can take it slowly. Perhaps you need a gel saddle cover, or you could try wrapping an old t-shirt over the saddle to bulk it up a bit.
It will get easier - I can almost guarantee that in a couple of weeks the ride will feel no distance at all. And think how much you will have saved!
Thanks Halfie, I have been to the " Backside Shop" and have a new bottom on order!!Lol! I will get myself a new gel saddle I think, do they make them in armchair shape??
!!! (That's applause Debbie.)
Good on you. You never know what head might turn at the sight of a lovely woman on a bike--especially a lilac bike named Lilly. :)
I've been wondering if you changed your interior over from fall/winter to spring/summer. I remember the beautiful pics you included in a previous blog that showed your boudior all decked out for the new season. It looked wonderful!
Hi Debbie
Saddle sore?
My solution a soft hand and some cream, sorry i`m spoken for LOL
Hi Jaqueline, thank you for the encouragement, don't quite know if "Lilly" is friend or foe?? It is getting slightly easier, I just look like I have been hurtled through a wind machine by the time I get to work! As for my boudoir, I didn't really do a change as such, kept my nice duck egg because I loved the colour so much! Will let you see any new bedding I indulge in. ( one of my passions, bedding)!
Yes Les, I agree, I should advertise lol!
