    Was the word 'with' deliberately missing or was that a Freudian slip?

    Also disappointed. The first few times I read it I had assumed the "with" was in there. Couldn't click fast enough when I read it properly.

    Apart from the fact that I am disappointed about not being able to ride Victoria Pendleton it is funny how these days it is well seen to have women only clubs, races, series, you name it but hey, bring a men's only club and you will be stoned to death.

    Lets think about this title for a second.

    If the prize was actually a chance to ride Victoria Pendleton, then, assuming she was in agreement with that, she would open to any and all particpants. We could - at a push, and I know some of you already have - assume that there will be more than one winner. We know what that means, chain gang fans.

    Now, I don't know about you but when you consider that, as I did, my only conclusion is that I really wouldn't want to win.

    Don, if no one has said this you before, I'll say it now: sometimes you think way too much.

    I know, but I struggle to understand how a mind couldn't or wouldn't wander onto that little tidbit.

    Still over thinking there.
    If you want to analyse it this is how the average male brain works. Mmmmm, Vicky P, mmmmmm. It never goes further than that because it's never going to happen.
    Now if she came knocking on my door begging me to roger her senseless I'd have to say no because I'm happily married and I really don't want a whiny needy bit of fluff to complicate things. Why throw away everything I have for that?
    BUT, she's not about to beat on my door begging me to give her a jolly good seeing to so I shall revert to mmmmm...

    You're over-thinking it. Anyhow, if you're married then you probably already have one whiny needy bit of fluff, so one more can't hurt :)
