    Sunny with a strong easterly wind - ride out sail back hopefully.
    Rule #5 // Harden The Feck Up.
    Rule #9 // If you are out riding in bad weather, it means you are a badass. Period.
    Rule #12 // The correct number of bikes to own is n+1.
    Rule #42 // A bike race shall never be preceded with a swim and/or followed by a run.

    Was very very gusty but nice and warm with empty roads which more than made up for it.

    BBQ time m-thinks!

    Another six laps of RP with JG. Clocked 1:49:47, with JG about 15 seconds because a Nissan Micra halted my progress in the final stretch. A PB by some way though. Hurt, too. Excellent ride.
    FCN 2-4.

    The laps just got faster and faster. Started off with a chatty 19 and ended up with the last two being a not-so-chatty sub-18. Hurty with all that wind about!
