    Making it up as you go along Cap'n?

    Chilly northerly wind and could be wet, wet, wet tomorrow:

    I feel it in my fingers, I feel it in my toes....or is that just the 'recovery' drink working?

    ...I'll be there, depending on drizzle/steady rain/downpour/biblical flood/grog

    So all hands on deck

  • The ocean parted and the crew went forth
    33 miles at 17.9mph with a crew of 8
    New boy Chris did very well
    Sargent pain back and on form, launched the main lead out
    Robbie looking good and on the front as always
    So good luck to the Paris Nice recovery rosters
    May the hammer of Thor stay from your rear view

  • Yo Ho shipmates

    18mph? The hammer went down today... and yesterday on Dom's undercarriage...

    ...Wait until day 6, the mighty Thor will have been playing havoc!

    Good group out today, several Lost Boys found. Sarge back with old favourites such as 'sweat is fat crying' and 'pain is weakness leaving the body'. He couldn't get consecutive sprints this weekend though and Robbie even outfoxed the wily Cap'n, who nearly saw the front of the group for the first time in the last mile. Justice was done.

    Croydon Hill is no Ventoux, but seems a little easier to climb these days. Just need to do that for 2 hours to replicate the joys ahead in Provence! Oh well, we'll always have Paris. Climb it again, Sam.

    Au revoir

  • Missed the boat this morning - too many hop-based recovery drinks last night.

    John - reckon you and Dom will be fine on Paris Nice. Warmer weather and a bit of Cote du Rhone to dull the pain!

    You can raise the Jolly Rodger on the top of Ventoux!
  • Mutany with the crew colluding against the captain
    Sargent , robbie and the young one giving it the 1/2/3
    Robbie zillion miles won the day

    the captain calls Mjolnor in hand.
    Well the port anyway
