New bike

Up early this morning and while J had a work phone call I went for a run. Managed another 5K in just over 30 minutes. Didn't feel quite as good as Friday. Calf muscle hurt a bit after. Need to do more stretching I expect, although it was very cold out.
After a hearty breakfast we loaded the car and headed over to see Flip Top to drop her keys off and collect J's iPad.
From there it was down to Mum and Dad's to collect this bike. Dad used to use it a few years ago and said I could have it for the triathlons this year. Knowing him it’s a good bike.
Left them around midday and headed home. Managed to get back with no issues and after a bath we spoke to holiday Mum and Dad and arranged some flights down to see them.
Also go hold of a friend who agreed to give the bike a once over on Sunday morning and go for a ride with me to teach me how it works. Lots of gears and funny paddles. Also booked the flight to London for our trip away in March.
