Caron-a, me and the OH can vouch for cycling.
We did 30 miles on Saturday to try and get a little exercise into the legs. Sat down all the way and couldnt stand up on Sunday!!

I find that if there's a pub in the middle and at the end it's a good incentive :mrgreen:

Very good point Caron, I do feel that we ought to be getting fit for all aspects of our skiing. :wink:

Now that's my kind of exercise, one that involves a pub. I also own a bike that hasn't seen the light of day for some time, good excuse to dust it off and get peddling.

Roller blading/inline skating also sounds good, sadly I flogged my roller blades at a car boot sale a few years ago, I was rubbish at it anyway.

Cycling, running and ice hockey works for me. There's a lot of tips and plans on youtube. Just keep it fun
Uh oh, I think I broke'd the lift

This cycling business is all well and good, but it feels like someone has shoved something up your bottom a day later or the next time you go out on your bike.
