Last Sunday 13th and THIS WEEK

edited December 2009 in Club runs
expected to see comments on last weeks rides....did a 32 mile fixie with the club ride but turned off with Richard and Rebecca M. and Andrew Skeen as we were on a different ride to the main club........congratulations to Rebecca for a really good ride, I don't know about the rest of yoiu on that ride, but I was very impressed. Andrew is getting his cycling legs back after a 3 year break...not a roadie like us, but a sprint track cyclist.

I won't be riding this week as the weather is against safe cycling. good luck to our off-roaders.

did a 53 mile loop while in durham this week....three major climbs of 17% with a half mile section on each of 20%.one climb is 11 miles and 400 metres...1500 metres of climbing in all....it rained, was freezing and that was the best day.

how was your week.........

  • Sunday 13th went well
    ended up 38ish miles and 16ish mph
    everyone back at the end together
    Steff and a few others wound up the last mile or so
    Steff sat up at the top of the final hill in sight of the line ?
    could not resist......

  • To all

    strappy.
  • that's such bad luck Strappy.........hope she mends quickly...have a very happy Christmas, break or no.....
  • re 13th ride and sprint, cant ride my bike so might as well rise to the bait...

    your choice james, either a) with bobs words to another rider "its a club run mate, not a race" still ringing in my ears i didnt have the heart to take it to the line, or b) half way through the sprint i suddenly remembered how good the christmas dinner had been, knew you'd be on my shoulder and thought i'd gift you the sprint as a way of saying thanks...

    went skiing at harlton yesterday rather than face the turbo. looks like its raining now so maybe the roads will be ok by wednesday...
