Hi Neil,

Trevor tagged you in a post.

Probably nothing for you cycling heroes, but a testy little uphill for a unfit slob like me. At least I got in a bit of cardio as the rest of the 8 minute ride home was flat.

So I figure the Fat Cactus might be a beneficiary of my attempts to get a little cycle fit. Since cycling to work and back is a bit short for any kind of work out I will go to Fat Cactus every day and work on my time for the ride home each day. Baby steps is what its called and I am sure Neil Anthony Hughes from whom I am purchasing this fine cycle would agree."
