    these an article in cycling weekly this week about cramming in training for sportives.
    The dissenter is every human being at those moments of his life when he resigns
    momentarily from the herd and thinks for himself.

    I had been cycling once a week for most of the latter part of last year, signed up for the Kinross (black) at Xmas via the reserve list, fell off my bike in January losing 7 weeks of any training (not even the gym) and with 7 weeks of weekend riding only managed the red (79 miles) in 5h 14min.
