Work stuff then will try a run later, then probably pub as it feels holiday ish and the wife is away
Last day WFW before a 5 day weekend
Third day in a row running and nothing bad has happened apart from a trip to Greggs.
Same here on the last day at work, the only bad thing being I have to do a return trip to Scouserpool tomorrow to convoy back with junior and her piles of junk/dirty laundry from uni. Better check my locking wheel nuts are nice 'n' tight...
Shall try and not get fidgety, rest and eat plenty today.
The C40 is listed on Fleabay.
Mrs P says I can have another bike if I make room (by selling a bike). So much for n+1. I suppose it's fair enough really.
*One's which, in their current incarnation, are upwards of £800 a pair.
Some people.
Another busy day of firefighting in the orifice, unfortunately not actual fires. It's wet and miserable out there so I took advantage of the half term lack of traffic and drove in. Wobbled to Croydon last night, what a censored that is. Passed the end of B³'s road, but didn't stop as it was late.
Good luck with selling the 'nago to buy another one Pinno. Where's Seano? He should be asking Stevo about bike buying advice as he wants to get his Mrs a hybrid.

Pretty much done for today in the shift keerap mode. Do some measuring up a la what to go where then a quick refresher in the microbrewery tap room beckons.
What do you want from a road bike, do you know?
The C40 won on the cobbles at Paris Roubaix 5 times no less.
In the first year with the Mapei team's boss fretting all night prior to the race with the C40's debut, he called Ernesto Colnago.
Colnago had tested the thing to breaking point and Ernesto had to persuade the Mapei-Quick step boss that it was a safe option.
The C40 was the winning bike - 3 in the top 10 were C40's. The following year, it was a 1st 2nd 3rd.
You could spend upwards of £3k on a new, modern bike and easily have something inferior to that C40.
