Cold mornings and wet rides home

Down 5 kilos since I started this challenge!!! woo hoo !  That's 5kgs less that I have to carry  for 250 km come October!  Although I don’t feel any different the commute has been a slightly easier each time. By easy I mean my recovery is marginally  faster and I don’t feel  as fatigued  until further into the ride. The pleasing thing is as long as I’m riding regularly I don’t have to be dieting hard, just eating a bit less and cutting out the late night snacks and junk food and exercising a bit more.  Keeping  up the motivation to ride as often as I can is the hard part! Last week were cold mornings and  wet rides home.  I hate riding in the rain at night but at least there are a lot less people to worry about on the bike trails!
I’ll be back on the bike tomorrow morning, I'm aiming for a 200km week.

Below are a couple of pictures from last weeks ride to work along the Yarra trail.
