started the day with a strange head - generally get two of these per year which turn into a migrane. But saying that it is only two all year. Decided to do the bike ride with Ed rather than let him... read more

absolutely totally flat out, had to push hard into the wind outbound then with the huge tailwind had to push just as hard due to the risk of rain.

yep I know, pulled my quad muscles on Sunday playing stoolball with the girls (they were short of people so a few boyfriends were roped in - when my girlfriend gives the puppy dog eyes....she could have robbed a bank she'll still get away with it) - hoping to be up and running again (and in double figure temperatures) soon

Fantastic ride Rober. Sounds like you might have a good riding partner. It might prove to be his easy day and your hard day, but there can still be opportunities to ride together. Hopefully anyway. Great job.

well let's see on the riding partner, as I'm too slow for her, it might just be the difference between a road bike and hybrid bike, but let's see.

It could be the hybrid bike but my guess is she's pretty good. That doesn't mean she wouldn't enjoy riding with you or that you couldn't learn a lot by riding with her. Not all the time, but it seems like a good riding partner from time to time.

yes exactly Scott it gives me something to aim at, the speed difference is about one and a half to 2 miles per hour between us though - although she's 10 years older !

probably the fastest that I can go at present on the Giant Rapid fire Hybrid bike. The slightly damp roads helped to reduce friction and make it go as fast as was possible.

outbound - awful against the 16mph headwind, coming back fantastic with the 16mph tail wind behind me
I also crossed a crash - the traffic was being diverted and it didn't look good. Scary.

the road hadn't been blocked, I passed the police car coming the other way to do that after about 15 minutes riding on - the cars were all stopped as the ambulance was then blocking the road so just had to pick a path and carry on,
