Manchester - Llandudno 2016 : Saturday April 23...for Harry, England and St George

[fossyant]

But next time maybe not in a pub were the toilets are not up 3 flights of stairs!
Looking forward to next year

Well done @nickyboy for all the effort you put in organising the ride

I was in there a couple of weeks ago, and recovering from a broken back, those stairs were hairy to say the least, and I'd only drank coffee.

Just wanted to say thanks for letting myself, Tony and Adam tag along. The last 30 miles or so back into Manchester were murder, but we made it!

Chapeau @nickyboy

Even though the Garmin took me turn by turn to the finish, it claims it was 23 miles, some of it by sea!

My Garmin turned itself off when I was going through Fflint, I turned it back on again but didn't realise until a few miles later I forgot to restart the timer so lost a few miles on total.
Not to worry I also had mapmyride running on my phone. I have just gone onto it to check out my 1st 100 miler, guess what? Yes that's right somehow it hasn't been saved!!!!!

Damn, that's harsh. I will definitely run 2 devices next time.

I'm really hungry all the time. I had my breakfast at 8am. I want another breakfast now

So what's new?

My Garmin said 101.1 miles from Start to finish on the Hilly route

I ought to have posted this photo of Nicky ceremoniously handing over some sweaty old rag to Katherine
And now I have!

 

[tommaguzzi]

Nicky's feet! HAHAHAHAHAHA!

He has got two camel toes!

You do know you can grow not to like someone don't you?

If ever there was a marrying of style and practicality, that was it

Knee = completely buggered.

Tried a short 4 mile to the train station and had to turn round and start again.

Worth it.

What have you done to it? Whatever it is, don't leave it unless this is a familiar scenario you know how to sort.

Mine was sore on Sunday, an old injury, so if anyone heard any screams on Sunday morning from room 311 in the Travelodge, that was me working on my knee. I shall be doing a gentle ride tomorrow to see if the soreness has gone.

Its a new one on me unfortunately! I'm gonna leave it a few days and see how it goes. Agony inside knee and along front of shin but only in certain positions. Full range of movement and no seizing up or swelling. It's only stairs and cycling that leave me unable to talk in anything other than expletives!
