MSN Spaces sux – as does my cycling

 

Is everyone else as disappointed with the ongoing login problems plaguing MSN Spaces?

Yep, that’s what I thought.  No-one has responded.  Because no-one has been able to get connected and see my cry for help.

 

Maybe one day it will all be sorted.  Or maybe one day I’ll be proactive enough to seek out another blogging service, or innovative enough to register a URL and get my own blog hosted somewhere cheap.  And by cheap I don’t mean inexpensive; I mean inexpensive and proportionally crappy.  But anything is a step up from the level of crappiness you get with a competely free product like this.

 

And so you know, just like MSN Spaces, my riding is in the toilet.  The new job I started 4 months ago last Friday is a near perfect 48km (30mi) from home.  So in the 77 available working days I have managed to ride to work exactly once.  That’s 7300km (4500mi) of riding gone begging.  In contrast with what could have been, what actually was is this… 13 rides in the past 126 days for a total of 488km (303mi).  Sort of OK unless I put an asterisk against those numbers and say that 4 of those 13 rides totalled 292km (181mi).  That leaves the 9 other rides averaging less that 22km (14mi) each.  Any wonder I’m back into wheezing-at-the-top-of-the-stairs mode.
