Richie Cross Posted January 22, 2012 Report Share Posted January 22, 2012 I enjoyed my (half) run today. Best tactic to let the worst of the weather pass, head out and get an extended cafe stop Felt good today with the nice pace (tailwind assisted) but it all went wrong at Kilwinning. I had an aversion to going down the middle of the road...like everyone else...and instead got caught up in the traffic and consequently lost everyone! I was 100% sure you had gone straight over at the lights...but you hadn't. My phone was also on silent so didn't hear Mark's call. Leaving Kilwinning on the Lochibo (?) road, my legs then died on me. The man with the hammer came knocking, or hammering Me and 12mph then became best of friends and try as I might in the winds, alone.....I was done for Home for about 2pm. So, legs normally give in around the 50 mile mark but it was on 45 on the clock today. I've spoken to my mentor and motivational coach, Skinny One Lung, and he assures me it evens out due to the higher pace. I hope to convince myself. At least there won't be any hills in Italy......

2023 Subscriptions martin Posted January 22, 2012 2023 Subscriptions Report Share Posted January 22, 2012 Hell of a day for me. I know I didn't mention it b4 but I have had a virus which left me a bit off form. Still managed the full 75 miles ....Charlie, as for Lewis beating you in the sprint, is that no what elbows are for? He did take the short route home, maybe he's got a virus. Like I had. No point dwelling on it tho. You have to be up there to give them the elbow (sorry Charlie!) Was it only 75 miles for you lads Johnstone - Johnstone? And does that include the u turn at Fairlie back to Largs? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark O Posted January 22, 2012 Report Share Posted January 22, 2012 You lot are soooo cruel. Firstly the Ayrshire lassies get it in the neck for being too sensible at silly o'clock, then young pup Lewis cops it for whipping Charlie's butt at the 30. Hincapie has it in for a poor wee virus among other sections of wider society, and now Billy Mac takes another verbal doing for having too much cheese at lunch and being rendered incoherent as a result. Just as well there are no shrinking violets in the main bunch, big girls blouses from Ayrshire, rubbish sprinters, contagious zombies and fromage munching, tyre wrecking frog cops perhaps; but no shrinking violets. No wonder people keep turning up each week, never a dull moment in this travelling circus. Roll on next weekend for more of the same.

2023 Subscriptions Gummers Posted January 22, 2012 2023 Subscriptions Report Share Posted January 22, 2012 Phenomenal day gentlemen! I made it home at 2.30 with 140km in my legs. Richie, glad you made it home! The horrible weather lead to an early left turn onto Dalry road. I think George's virus decided to get off at kilbirnie! Change of pace was a killer! See you all next week! Andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest EPCC Posted January 22, 2012 Report Share Posted January 22, 2012 In my defence wrote it on the phone tiny screen no glassses Enjoyable day though expensive crud guards 25 tyre 28 tube 5 and 20 to paul Mcd to get me home should have just got a taxi round. Plus point wheels are stripped and drying my lovely open corsa pave will be back on the rims for next week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colin McPhee Posted January 22, 2012 Report Share Posted January 22, 2012 Hard day in the saddle for me today. Thankfully Paul kindly gave me a wheel to hang on to but I couldn't even manage to do that as my legs were gubbed after that hard pace setting through Ardrossan. On the plus side made it home with 70 + miles in the legs. Onwards and Upwards Colin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
