Finally ... the sun came out on the weekend. The landscape sparkled. There was some pretty good cloudage too. It was a very busy day for me but, despite not really having the time, I headed out on the bike into the Dales. 

I was reminded of lots of good things but also how poor my fitness is at the moment. I crawled up my last hill home, having seriously bonked in the final few miles. The muscles forget how to store glycogen so today hopefully served as a reminder. It felt good to get that pain behind me today. It has to be endured at least once at the beginning of every year.
