For me, its off to mighty glentress to have a play in the f/r park and do the red route. Could even be temped to do the black route back down.

    Just sent off my broken helmet back to specialized, so have to wait for my new s-works 2d to arrive before doing any proper riding. Also been really ill today, stayed in bed until about 6pm. Swine flu I think... :D

    Might just go down the bmx track at the weekend.

    Newlands corner is the plan
    Training is like fighting with a gorilla. You don’t stop when you’re tired. You stop when the gorilla is tired.

    I'm off the bike for a week, as I'll be clad in neoprene and 20m under water in the red sea!
    Everything in moderation ... except beer
    Beer in moderation ... is a waste of beer

    If riding an XC race bike is like touching the trail,
    then riding a rigid singlespeed is like licking it
    ... or being punched by it, depending on the day
