Ow!




Already suffering from the weekend’s Mountain Mayhem 24-hour race, out for a ride with American Cousin Greg today. Bike etiquette dictates I loan him my geared road bike, so I’m on the fixed-wheel.

70km’s a long way on a fixed wheel. Lance’s old coach used to say you got twice the benefit, because your legs never stop moving. My legs did stop moving, several times, as I ground to an uphill halt.

Very nice pub somewhere out in the West Sussex countryside for lunch, but unfortunately can’t remember what it was called or where it is. I’msotired.....
