I've just had the strongest coffee I've had in a very long time, plus two Krispy Kreme donuts (pink icing plus jam and cream filling. Omnomnom).

I feel strangely buzzy now. When will it stop?
Swim. Bike. Run. Yeah. That's what I used to do.

Bike 1
Bike 2-A

    I ride an MTB and a Hybrid, I don't have any bike with funny shaped bars - I think that counts as a confession of sorts in this forum!

    I quite enjoyed the smell of sweaty DuraGloves this morning, when performing "farmer's blows"...

    Yeah - on that, I got dragged around the Dales on them last weekend. They're really nice. And tubs are a lot, lot easier to glue than people make out (although there are a few tricks to it). I can get a preglued spare tub in a micro saddle bag with levers and CO2, so what's not to like?

    fuck me dude i've known you now for what 500 years and i've only just clicked you're actually Sir Roger Moore that explains the terrible dress sense and the whole 1980s outlook on life, and the cheese fetish.

    Four your eyes only :wink:
