    The road isn't brilliant along those bike lanes. The traffic probably puts paid to keeping that up for much longer.

    Yeah, I don't use the cycle lanes.
    I stay in the bus lane, bus drivers don't like it but feck them, I'm entitled!

    I bought the Ashman Strength System ebook yesterday and I found myself really really liking the template, the exercises given as options for the template and the way that it's periodised into easy to manage blocks and its a 4 day a week programming hitting lower body push and hinge, upper body push and pull, and arms twice a week with and being hit 4x a week and with conditioning built in.

    It's a really good looking document.
