Glad it's spurring you on mate, I must admit I feel a lot better for having a month of rides under my belt now, bit more bike fit.
I think for me it helps a bit if u have a target, so a train to somewhere and then riding back home is better for me, I just focus on the route home.
I also have a road bike I've not used in about 3 years that I'm now thinking of getting back on so if you fancy a ride out somewhere give me a shout.
