    sometimes if you've been riding quite a few days in succession, you can often need a rest day for the body to recuperate (and this hot weather may exacerbate the problem as we are all prone to dehydration)

    stick with it, the bike will still be there tomorrow

    You're tapering - it's a vital part of hardcore MTFU man-training. In the meantime, your sig is 5 weeks out of date - time to update?

    I had it last week from tues-friday, boy was my commute hardwork.

    Man-Flu, Commuting & hot weather are not a good combination.

    Istruggles through though.
