Forecast was not terrible so cycled in again. Drizzled for most of the way which made for some exciting corners.
Currently on the office floor looking at the ceiling trying to stretch hamstrings.0 -

Awesome commute in. Covered the 10 miles in 12mins 38 seconds. Like a stealth bomber wearing a rather fetching pink high vis gilet. Work avoidance and coffee beckons. What’s that lazy bones @pinno doing today I wonder? Probably curled up in front of the fire 🔥Pinno, מלך אידיוט וחרא מכונאי0

No, I am not curled up in front of the fire Seano.
I have a few things to sort and then i'm going to go pedal.
None of this up with the larks in the dark, on glass, in heavy, traffic or communting stuff.seanoconn - gruagach craic!0 -
Dowset's attempt on BBC iplayer at 9.55 this evening BTW.

on the BBC website it says:pinno said:Dowset's attempt on BBC iplayer at 9.55 this evening BTW.
I hope there isn't 2 hours of bollox before the start.
So that dosen't leave a lot of spaceBBC said:"Watch Alex Dowsett attempt to break the hour record live on the Red Button, BBC iPlayer and the BBC Sport website and app:
Wednesday, 3 November - 21:55 - 23:15"

They got rid of the hot food in Sainsbury’s phew 😥 but now they’ve replaced it with a charcuterie stand! How am I supposed to get more aero with all this Saucisson in my face!Pinno, מלך אידיוט וחרא מכונאי0

Ride with a bit of unexpected sunshine.
86 miles, 2490m of climbing, wind speed 63 m/s, 1hr 53 mins.
Quite disappointed at that effort really.seanoconn - gruagach craic!0 -

Forecast was not terrible so cycled in again. Drizzled for most of the way which made for some exciting corners.
Currently on the office floor looking at the ceiling trying to stretch hamstrings.
But try to keep back/pelvis flat otherwise it's stretching your back not hamstring.
My @rse is still about 2 foot off the wall1 -

In other news we now have the wifi up and running at casa Stevo and I'm getting a good signal in the studio/man cave. Better do some work now...
Next decision - Sky or BT for telly and sport?

windows open, heating and ventilation going full blast
still rather spaced outmy bike - faster than god's and twice as shiny0 -
Been in work, now sat in a Costa waiting for the right time to get the bus up to the hospital. Work has been very understanding. Expect the worst and hope for the best I think!!
In other news, Pinno’s bike ride sounds like an amble on a Sunday afternoon. Need to get that average speed up, laddie.0 -
