'Don care

Saturday 23rd January 2010. Hillingdon 3rds. Turned up. Raced. Finished near the back of a (very crowded) bunch. Went home. Photo shows that I must have spent at least a little time on the front – which is the only good thing I can take from the experience!



I missed the race yesterday (30th Jan) due to an excess of cheese the night before! Can't say I was sorry when I heard about the crashes. I went on the turbo instead, then out to Windsor today - plenty of ice about but (luckily) no spills. Oh well, no racing but 60 solid base miles - could be worse...

Snow joke ... uuurrrgggh!


Hillingdon again, 2nd Jan. Failed break, few laps on/near the front, but mainly relaxing at the back. Rolled over the line at the back of bunch. Rubbish. Here's a picture of me relaxing at the back next to a Kingston Wheeler.

Since then - turbo in the snow. Numerous times! Now it's started snowing again. I need some new sessions and some new music...

Hillingdon was cancelled today, predictably - from the photo I saw there looks to be at least 4 inches of snow. Given my form it's probably a good thing - £11 I can spend on pizza instead.
