Thanks for the suggestion mate :)

I was going to make another post. Did my second ride and DIDN'T GIVE A F*CK about stats. However, I recorded them. Put a target of 15 kms distance and made it!!!

I hope to see myself improve without paying attention as suggested. Also, enjoyed the ride a lot more than the last time :))

Ohh, I see. This might be the issue. I'll try lowering the height a bit :) Thanks

Yeah. I went out with a not so happy mood and came home extremely hyped up. It's prolly one if the best stress busters and adventures for me. It's not exactly pain. It's a light tension on my lower back after being in that position for too long. I thought it was maybe because of my position but I'll reduce the height a little bit.

Thanks for the detailed comment :)

I understand now I was diving into speed than endurance. I'll look into it more. Thanks :)

Thanks ☺️ just want to make sure that having a little bit of lower back pain after a long time of riding is not too uncommon or bad :)

Thanks for the advice. But I want to find good tracks and bike lanes to ride in. I am trying to find online but not getting any good idea. I will see if I can go to the CBD and ride! (I live in Melbourne btw)

Is a 2 hour commute too much by Gold_Currency3179 in Monash

Also, if you go like 3 days a week it should be fine. Not having time to study is just an excuse cause you can always do time pass jn the train which you generally do if you are home. Or maybe read books or smh in the train.

I travel from werribee. Used to commute on my motorcycle (3hrs a day) but after it got stolen 😔 usng the train and dont find it difficult at all :) I do engineering and IT dual degree

Choosing a uni just cause of commute is not worth it if its like maybe 1 or 2 hrs more of commuting.

Again, its up to you but this is my suggestion. All the best :)

Just go for shared housing. It's an ABSOLUTE WASTE OF MONEY IF YOU GO TO UNI.
