Arse Getting Harder

I must admitted, that the title somehow give off a pornographic vibe.

I used to ride my bike a lots, especially around the countryside 3 years ago at the same time I left the Mary Hare Grammar School for the Deaf (It's a boarding school) which is situated in the middle of the countryside. In a normal week, I'd do an average 10 miles just mucking about, and I I wanted to go for a proper ride, I'd average 25 miles.

Two weeks ago, I've decided to send my bike away for a service at my local bike shop called Evans Cycles as my bike now look worse for wear; brake cable are rusty, brake's worn out, saddle become hard as rock, rear cassette's slipping, rim's not straight, frame need some welding etc. After recieving my bike back (and a hefty £120 bill), saddle and semi-slick tyre has been added and now it ride smoothly and effortlessly.

Now here come the part I wasn't expecting, my bum started to get awfully sore after 10 minutes of riding and I thought it's to do with my new saddle, I was even playing around with the idea of taking the massive saddle from me mum's old bike just to be comfortable but decided that my dignity is not to be thrown around lighty, and decided to bear with the pain for a while.

after a weeks, riding become more and more comfortable, and more bearable too, and I've come to realise I no longer feel any pain or such.

I love feeling the small achievement of actually getting fitter in such a short space of time, nothing match the feeling of becoming better at a partiuclar sport in a short period of time.

Sure it's a bum, but it's a start.
