Weight – 104.6 kgs
Steps – 5833 Steps
So I woke up without an alarm again this morning at 5:30 and I got up and did my weigh-in and I was down 0.1 kgs to 104.6 kgs which is good. More importantly my airways seem way less inflamed again and I am breathing better so I think a weekly fast might be the way to go moving forwards!
I then chilled for a bit and its now 7:30 am and I am getting ready to go to the pump track and test out the Black Market with the 80 mm forks.
I got to the track for about 8:00 and rode for just over an hour on the Black Market and did mostly 1st and 3rd straights. The reduction in fork travel has made the bike feel way better ad the top tube is way less steep now so the stand-over height has reduced as a result making the bike feel like a BMX Cruiser now! The bars feel a bit low now as my back was hurting by the end of the session but that can be fixed by putting the higher rise BMX style bars on the bike again. The forks have been really sell setup for my weight too so they never went over 3/4 of the travel even with some pretty heavy cases which is great. I basically forgot that I had bouncy forks on the bike after a bit which is great!
I then went home and waited for my son to wake up then made some burgers and we headed over to my parents where I out everything back from where I was cleaning the conservatory on Friday night and then I hoovered through the house then we headed home.
I then chilled for the rest of the night.
I only managed 5833 steps for the day!

This morning I woke up at 6 am with my alarm and got up and did my weigh-in and I was down 0.1 kgs again to 104.5 kgs this morning. I then got showered and dressed and walked into the office for a 7 am start! At about 1 pm I walked home and made bacon, eggs and sausages as I was starving by that point as it was almost 2 pm! By the time I got home I was already on 11608 steps for the day so I will be able to chill all night!
I then went back to work again until about 15:30 when my friend popped round and dropped some stuff off for the BMX Club.
When my friend left I decided to fit the 16t Onyx cog that got delivered from Crucial BMX while i was in the office I then swapped out the Onyx wheel for the Profile Elite wheel that was on the Curtis and pumped the tyre up as it was super flat as its been in a cupboard for months waiting for the rain to stop!
This evening I plan to sort the bars on the Black Market Contraband as well.
