Last day of 2007

Had a bad nights sleep last night, and to top it off when I was asleep my mum called from New Zealand to wish us a happy New Years at 7am,
So I managed to head out at 12 noon towards richmond park, ridding a little bit quicker, legs feel strong but tired at the same time, rode 3 laps, very peaceful as hardly anyone about at all, road all wet though. I was about 13 minutes quicker than the same ride last week, although no wind at all today.
Have a annoying squeak from left pedal caused from some glop off the road between cleat and pedal body, stops if I wiggle my foot or disengage and clip back in, bizarre as it was my right pedal early in the year, but that stopped after I fell and scuffed up that pedal, have some new pedal bodies to fit and bearings, so I guess at the same time I change my cleats as well I hope to get rid of this squeak, need to be all set up for the New Year, going to record the details of my rides again, ie. keep a training diary, have done in the past but stopped the last few years as it seemed to be for me taking it to serious, but as an aid it is vital.
Will be listing target races for the years and times as well, hope to be doing some time trailing as well.
Just need to sort my body out so I can switch off at night and get a good nights sleep, better sign up with the local GP, so I can check if my body is lacking in anything, minerals etc.
Very sleepy at present, the way I feel I think I will be in bed well before midnight tonight, thats OK as I am a kiwi I can say that we are already into 2008 as it is 13 hours difference at the moment, so at 11am this morning it is 2008 in NZ. I was still in bed even then, very slack!
Happy New Years
heres to a good 2008
