Headed out on the road tonight :shock: (yeah I know) just to stretch the old legs. Have not done this for months and had forgotton how uneventful it could be, no rocks, drops, relentless hot climbs or berms :( and not even the local old ladies wanted to shuv me off the road, I was almost dissapointed.
On the way back I opted for a diversion on the old railway line which after all the rain we have had recently was full of lovely muddy puddles :D . Maybe sad or a bit perverted but just loved the feeling of getting some mud on my legs :D
Then there was the satisfaction of surprising a couple of chav's in their white trackie's as I raced by them as one of them said 'Fu' or something cause I didn't hear as I was long gone!, that's for all the 'something wrong with your bike mate... the wheels going round) comments.
Accross the old suspension bridge as I approached the final leg i got 'Schhhhhotland' roared in my earwhole by a drunken native, he seemed happy unfortunately my ear drum on one side doesn't agree.
Ah and then on the final hurdle as I turned off the road and onto the pavement for a few yards a quick splash through a lovely fresh streak of pi$h after some dweeb had let his dog wee all over the shop, thanks!
Happy Days :D, you have to be able to laugh eah!

  • Great read, felt like I was riding with you at times there! were you riding your mountain bike while out on the road? I think we all get stupid chav comments when we have to use the road but we're all too fast for there brains to kick in with the insulting comment, I think mine on the way home tonight was a sarcastic 'nice bike mate' but he never finished as it turned out it was a nice bike :lol:
