What am I doing up at this hour on a Sunday? Quite warm after wobbling to the old dear's. Busy day of doing stuff lies ahead.
Marin Nail Trail
Cotic Solaris
Vuelta has finally come to life and we have another week of it.
Guess everyone's still in bed.
Rolled out of my pit early (ish) and been up the local mountain for some fresh air and to try and chat to some aussie on the radio but it didn't work. I was too early for the cafe when I got back down.
Weather's pants here at the moment although it's forecast lots and lots of sunshine later. It had better turn nice because I've put a wash on.
They seem quite keen
Lazy man's Picnic for lunch with group of the lads taekwondo mates. Running later.
Some garden work this morning, ripping out more weeds and overgrown shrubs in places they shouldn't be. Washed car as it was a bit grubby . Did coffee and lunch, visited Mum for a while, sold some spare doors, and rode a couple hundred laps in the shed on various bikes to compare fit and feel accurately. Think I've whittled down the decision to sell one of the Open MTB's, and maybe a roadie frame. Just need to figure out what component kit to sell them with too. But that'll be a job for next week after we're back.
Ride rided. 40 miles over hills with a warm southerly breeze. Perfect. Colnago behaved impeccably. Fuelled by coffee and custard doughnuts.
Now beans, bangers and mash time.
Vuelta later.
Toyed with the idea of building a banking at one end for a mini-velodrome experience, but too much maths involved.
Couple weeks ago there was a very nice trials bike for sale locally, nearly bought it to set up a skills course in the shed as well, learn to ride up over all the benches and stuff. It sold quick though.
