    Oh is that right.......

    Sounds like blue on blue, tart on tart action.

    I presume you cast a disdainful eye over his MoMA helmet and cut of his suit before dropping him into your deep orange tinged wake?
    Fixed gear for wet weather / hairy roadie for posing in the sun.

    What would Thora Hurd do?

    If you have a Cateye, there should be a menu button on the back. Press that.

    Then, randomly press the buttons on the top and maybe the one on the side. That should do it. :)

    Great now I am averaging 17knots to work and the time is a quarter past the yard arm.

    I wanna race DDD, but I did not make his list......I only just made the cool list, because of my "soul patch" so, I feel that I need vengeance....or some form of race to show how macho we both are and that soul patches add swagger into your pedal stroke.

    As for celebs; I'd race William Shatner (I believe that he is a very good horse rider)...Therefore I would race William Shatner on his horse.

    As for cyclists: I'd race Danny Mcaskill.....I can probably beat him over the distance on my roadie, but he would significantly shorten his distance to the chosen finish, by hopping over everything in his path...

    It would be like Wacky Races for adults....

    How many strokes per minute were you managing? Or per nautical mile?

    Set off at 42 but quickly settled to 36 then realised it was supposed to be a recovery day and relaxed to a steady 28.

    edit: for some reason I craved a Gin and Tonic when I got home.
    Short hairy legged roadie FCN 4 or 5 in my baggies.

    Even more proof that SCR and Fight Club are so linked :-) Funnily enough I did think of this exact line last night and watched the movie the other day and tried to imagine them on bikes rather then knocking seven shades of sh!t out of each other........

    It was his orange socks punctuating the gap between his black shoes and the bottoms of his pinstripe trousers that I noticed first.

    And yes, he was wearing an open face MoMo helmet. Who'd have guessed?
    Swim. Bike. Run. Yeah. That's what I used to do.

    Braces?

    He was defo wearing braces and also had a ticket pocket - certain.

    The coolest man I ever saw walked out of a Parisian Cafe, swung his leg over a boxer BMW bike his Dad must have knicked off a Dead German on D-Day, swung on the kickstart and revved off in a clound of blue cool smoke.

    He was NOT wearing a MoMA helmet.
