7/3/10 Titties & back

Working at 1300 so planned to go on a spin with the Kettering CC chaps. In the event they werent at Saisburys (in fact theres a time trial today)
So I thought I'd take advantage of the unusual (but cold) easterly wind & head to Titchmarsh & back. Felt pretty kknackered after 5 miles! But warmed up & returned vis Cranford in pretty good shape
25.2m 1h41 @ 14.3mph

27/2/20 Rothwell/Harrington circuit

Fresh back from a 0-0 draw between Kettering & Rats & Dogs the sun was shining so I thought I'd jump on Belle for a spin.
Within minutes the heavens opened and my bare arms froze in the freezing sleety rain.
The 16 mile circuit felt comfortable once the sun came out & I pushed myself to get back in under the hour.
Frustrated by this long winter - can't wait for summer warm evenings
16.4m 59m40s @ 16.4mph

22/2/10 Icy blasts & cold fronts

So I set up the trainer in the garden & peddled furiously for 75 mins.
Freezing cold and hot sweat dripping down off my nose.
Static isnt much fun but the old legs needed a thrash...
about 18 miles in 1h15m
