In what form is the struggle? Mental or muscle?

Both. My legs ache at least 10 minutes earlier than if I were running. I loved running about a year back when I was really in the groove of it but moving houses and a new lifestyle ruined that and I couldn't really get into running in my new very hilly home. So I got a exercise bike and I've been really struggling on it.

It's natural. :) Just start with a lower intensity and with shorter durations and build your way up from there. The hilly terrain can be awesome for jogging/HIIT, cherish it mate. :D

I hate it because I can't see cars coming through the burbs.

Why do I struggle considerably more cycling than running?

I'm the opposite. I struggle a lot with jogging, more so than cycling.

But than again, I dont ride bikes outdoor( I do spinning). However, I use to get ankle problems from spinning cause of wrong body placement and motion on the bike...

My favorite cardio is speed roping though, its cheap and fun!

Did legs and back, routine was as following:

Barbell squats 3 x 12/10/8

Pull ups 3 x 10/8/6

Leg press 3 x 15/12/10

Back extension 3 x 15/12/10

Leg extension 3 x 15/12/10

Lat pull-pulldowns 3 x 12/10/8

Hamstring curls 3 x 12/10/8

Cable rows 3 x 12/10/8

Calf raises 3x 20

Exercises are not in the precise order I did them, though. Legs were shivering in the end. :D

My thighs are killing me, today I did 70kg barbell squats for the first time. :D I might need to get new pants though.. some of mine are getting too tight. :ph34r:
