I don't believe it!! Another week has just flown by, less then three months to go now. Markie is still making a good recovery. Hopefully we will see him out on the trails soon!!!
Busy training week, managed to push the mileage up to 156 plus miles with lots of up hills included. Dogs getting very fit as well, she loves coming out for some of the training rides. Don't worry though she only meets me for the last 2 or 3 miles, Natalie kindly meets me with her when I get near to home.
Saturday's ride had a small group of us do the Godstone loop again which makes a change, a nice scenic route from Godstone up to Chelsham and back. Ian had a near miss coming down the first descent, luckily just a small graze and bruising to the knee, a very muddy jacket plus a bent brake lever seemed to be the only sustained damage. The weather seems to have changed a bit waterproofs have come back out of the loft and the temperatures have dropped a bit and the trials have slowed down somewhat with mud and water everywhere. Hopefully, this will change back over the coming weeks.
Rumour has it we are going to Wales for a day or two at the end of May, I will update you on this nearer the time. The next big ride we are preparing for is the London to Brighton and BACK , yes that is correct and BACK about 75 to 80 miles of road riding on mountain bikes with knobblies we'll show the roadies!! Its on the 17th June so something to look forward to. Have a good week!!!
(Indi pictured have a well deserved rest after all the training)
