Morning Cruddites!
First day of another week in the overseas office, just phoned the LBS and booked two hire bikes for the weekend, now just have to decide where I'll ride!

On the work front - Meh!
Currently riding a Whyte T130C, X0 drivetrain, Magura Trail brakes converted to mixed wheel size (homebuilt wheels) with 140mm Fox 34 Rhythm and RP23 suspension. 12.2Kg.

    Wow you're good - riding two bikes at once...... Unless that's what you call hookers, if so, repect

    Today is the joys of the Cannock office for a meeting on stock :) so as its my only opportunity to ride this week I'm taking it - so a bit concerned as I've never cycled there!

    Later is probably a chilled night

    Morning Losers!

    Why isn't it Friday? It should be Friday!

    Today we're being assessed for the Customer Service of Excellence Award. It's not going to be fun.

    Laters!
    It takes as much courage to have tried and failed as it does to have tried and succeeded.

    :shock: That sounds like something I really wouldn't want to do. My usual opening gambit on the phone is "What the fark do you want?". I had my annual review yesterday, that took all of 30 seconds. Apparently I'm the most productive and highly valued member. I've got to go to a 1 hour training session for a new oil supplier soon, really major case of cba on that front. I already know far more on the subject than would be considered healthy. I can't decide weather to have a snooze or ask technical questions just for sh!t and giggles. Hopefully not much else going on today, off to see the old dear later as it's her birthday today and she goes to Italy for a week tomorrow.
    More tea to fuel the hangover is needed...

    Afternoon you lovely people,
    Another lazy day for me. Done two jobs so far, both remotely, the way I like it. Slow ride in with a slow puncture, it's about time I bought some new tubes. Might ride home, might drive instead. See how I feel later.

    Cannocks easier than your last outing on a mountain bike :) Apart from the uphill bits obviously...

    Evening Spazwangles, just on train home. Managed to waste a couple of hours at our advisors listening to some new ideas. Tomorrow will be hell as I have back to back meetings for most of it. Meh. Roll on the frikkin weekend. And some booze tonight.
