I'm going to shave my head as well, so that sun cream and midgie cream can be applied more easily.

Good thinking, my hair is a bit wild and overgrown at the moment.

Today will be spent at home attempting to make a pile of stuff to chuck in my car tomorrow while fending kicks to the balls from my dog. He got me twice already this morning.

I'll be instagramming some photos of the c2c2c follow @verylongsheep if you want to see them. Others probably will as well so look out for them. Also, I'm sure you all follow the farkbook page already but just in case you don't, it's here: https://www.facebook.com/CC2CC/

And what's what's that you ask? Of course you can still donate, here's that link again: www.crudcatcherchallenge.co.uk

Morning fools,

Pretty much what they ^^^^^^ said. I'm already packed and in Glasgow which is in the proper north of England. It's like Edinburgh's shitty crackhead cousin.

The chips are pretty good though.

Stevo_666

Good luck lads.

Bit of a hot one here so I'm chilling with the hound and a big mug of coffee until I summon up the energy to do some jobs.

Bon courage mon c2c2cers,

Have a good un and please ask Gazlar where Maddie is?

On a roof fitting a velux type window this am then at a village meal/p1ss up this arvo. Now watching the trooping of the colour. All very stirring stuff.

More boozes on the way so....

Toodles.

SUNDAYYYYYY!

Morning Losers!

I pretty much got everything ready yesterday to make today easier, but of course, you end up finding you've shoot tonnes to do before you leave. My deadline is 9am as it takes about 3 hours 40 to get to Glasgow in time for our rendezvous at 1pm for some chips.

Wish us all luck, donate if you haven't, and I'll update you when I can.

Laters!

Stevo_666

Good luck, ya bunch of mongs

I'm going to be avoiding work and sunshine today.

Afternoon deficient ones,
Lovely and hot down here, too hot to be riding a bike any distance. Good luck all you C2C2C2Cers, try not to get arrested.

We've managed to keep Gazlar out of the clutches of the police and the McCann's so far, so should be alright.

Just having a brew in Caffe Nero in Glasgow waiting for the rest of the crudders.

People here are proper weird so at least we'll all fit in.

Afternoon weird walkers,

Been digging stuff up in the garden, no dead hookers as yet but plenty of beetroot, spuds, onions and garlic. I will then ride around the local village wearing a stripey shirt, beret and a garland of onions.

Watch out for the midges c2c2cers, they are nasty, worse than the locals!

I regret to inform you alll that it is Monday already.
Presumably TKM is busy with the other C2C2C2C2Cers so hasn't managed his traditional morning alarm post. That or he's in a ditch.
Glorious day out down here in the smoke, hopefully it's nice further north as well. Unfortunately a dentist visit awaits me then going in to work late. Just looked at my work emails and deleted a load to make life easier later. Maybe I should delete all of them.

Stevo_666

Just escaped from the dentist myself and told I had to wait till the anaesthetic wears off till I can eat. Ferkin starving now. And swearing on a train onto town.

Looks like we'll have to stand in cor TKM on starting the daily bollox for a few days...

bg13

Happy monday weasels,

Gardening and sweating here today as it is red hot. Organising all the shizzle in one of the barns this arvo then into the pool for a cool off.
Then maybe a beer or three in support of the c2c2c2c2ers.

Toodles

veronese68

Chewsday, in fact not much chewing today as I should have the dentist appointment from yesterday today. Assuming he turns up for work today that is.
No word from the C2C2C2C2Cers, should we assume they are all in a ditch? We should probably raise a glass or twelve in their honour then.
Going to be a hot one again today, I will be mostly surrounding myself with air of the conditioned variety.
Onwards, to mediocrity...

Stevo_666

I guess they are in a ditch. Or in a brothel in Glasgow for the week.

Warm cycling in and it'll be a hot one this evening although tomorrow will be a scorcher if I go for it. After all, I need to get into shape for 'Col de Richmond Hill' on Thursday. Spent this morning playing around with large sums of money (not mine) and scaring people by asking them to authorise moving it around. How can a few noughts hurt you?

bg13

Afternoon dickwads,

Quite warm here today, I've been moving scaffolding about so have been sweating like Stevo in a basic maths test!

To cool down i have a bottle of belgian beer that a chum dropped round that is packing 10.5 abv, this of course will help me to have a conversation with mrs13!

Foods invound,

Wednesday, the day that is pubday for me.
That Belgian beer obviously hit the spot quickly bg. If the C2C2C2C2C2Cers are spending time in a Glaswegian brothel that's not the kind of riding I sponsored them for. I think they should sort their next ride around Rhyl.
Bloody knackered after a late airport run to pick the 'rents up, work avoidance is the main order of the day for me. Must try not to snore too loudly.
Onwards and upwards...

Stevo_666

I'm double knackered today as I usually don't pedal 2 days on the trot but that's what I'm doing and it looks like I'll be charbroiling myself on the way home tonight as its still over 30C out there. May take a day off cycling tomorrow as I don't fancy weaving my way 15 miles home along the South Circular after several pints with V68 and other assorted alcoholics

Might have to have a warm up drink tonight...

veronese68

Yeah, definitely not the best route for drunk cycling. Had a pint on the way home with a mate I bumped into as he has just escaped from hospital.

veronese68

Traditional Thursday morning hangover is here so it must be Thursday.
I actually drank lager last night as it was so warm. That's a rare thing in this country. Out drinking tonight with Stevo and a couple of roadie types. I might go on the Cotic just to scare them with fat rubber. Hopefully not much going on in the office today, this would be good as I need to look into insurance for the new car we're going to look at on Saturday.

bg13

Morning twonks,

Mild hangover here as it was too hot to properly drink.

Today is more work avoidance with a high chance of some pool time.

Toodles

Stevo_666

Afternoon Gits,

I'm on my way to have a drink with some strange men I met on the interweb. They Sa they ride bikes, so what could possibly go wrong?

veronese68

Fryday rolls around again.
Good drink with Stevo and a weirdo in lycra last night, nobody ended up in a ditch which is probably just as well. As a result I have a Thursday mild hangover on a Fryday. Consumption of dead pig will help the situation, until then coffee is in order. Meeting the EPO in the pub on the way home and slide into the weekend.
I wonder if the C2C2C2C2C2Cers have run out of money and been thrown out of that Glaswegian knocking shop yet. Maybe they have been forced into working there to pay off the bar bill.

bg13

Morning lycra lovers,

More gardening and housework for this lucky crudder, temperature is much better today so i shall wear clothes while doing it. Yesterday was naked hoovering as it was redders, obviously spent a lot of time fighting off mrs13 but I succeeded.

Pub tonight for foods and boozes.

Toodles

Stevo_666

Yep, was a good one last night although I'm pretty tired today if not as hungover as expected. And I managed to get the right trains today, unlike last night :P

Now headed home to chill and see if Strifey is still giving me the cold shoulder :roll:

veronese68

Saturday rolls around at last, to celebrate I have mostly been lying about drinking tea. I'm moving on to sitting and coffee next. Planned trip out to look at a car is postponed so pottering and avoiding anything too strenuous is in order.
I think it's safer to say the C2C2C2C2Cers have caught a dose of something really nasty from customers of the Glaswegian knocking shop they've been working in. Probably wish they'd gone to Rhyl.

bg13

Good day b00bt00bs',

Standard day of tidying stuff away with some grass cutting thrown in. As is the norm its quite warm. This helps build up the thirst for later.

Keep checking Liveleak for any signs of the c2c2c2c2ers but they are keeping very quiet.

Toodles

Stevo_666

I'm convinced that they're either in a ditch or camped out in a Glaswegian knocking shop. Can't take that long to ride across Jockoland surely?

Got plenty done today including shuffling loys of paper and getting another free bike service from a mate who's quite handy with spanners. The hound thought he could take on a dog three times his size in a play fight and soon realised he was wrong. No harm done though.

Think its a Thai take away tonight. Mmmmm....

Sunday

Morning Losers!

We completed the C2C2C Challenge! It was an absolute nightmare (though Ste will tell you it was a breeze I'm sure. That lad is used to exercise!) OddBoo broke his bike doing it (he did it on a CX bike!!!) on the last day, which was a downer, but it didn't matter.

We've seen excellent views, lots of laughs, and now I ache like mad. And the chafing. Oh my God the chafing!

I'm off for a shower and a relaxing day.

Laters!

Well done you lot. I won't ask what sort of chafing was involved

We can get the gory details in due course...
