Let's hope it's not as bad as this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rPwAIo0fseM
Superstition begins with pinning race number 13 upside down and it ends with the brutal slaughter of Mamils at the cake stop.

    30mph head wind for me in the morning apparently. Then not much tail assist in the evening. Typical

    be a tail wind, for myself and my wife, and head wind back, likely to be slow both ways picking way though branches etc, in the park.

    Looking at my options, and the forecast, I think the bike still makes sense though I'm basing that on the likelihood of the tube being screwed. After a strong ride today I'm not wedded to having to be on the bike tomorrow so I'll see what its like at 7am and make a decision there. No amount of MTFU will get over an overdose of tree branch to the head...

    No, but a crash helmet will. :wink:

    Rode in, no tree branches to the head but I did get attacked by a particularly vicious leaf. After a short pause to weep I took a dose of MTFU and managed to make it the rest of the way in. I'm currently typing this 1 handed as a result though ;)
