Totally cream crackered - physically and emotionally.
Rolled out at 8am, didn't get back till just gone midnight, four trains, two tube rides, a ridiculously hilly 50k (what a totally crackpot way to pop my metric half cherry), a cut tyre, an unshipped chain, two clipless moments - one of which was on returning home. I have a scuffed saddle and bar tape, one oiled-up sock, sunburn and a messed-up head.
And I squeezed in a visit to the grave of someone who always has been and always will be very dear to me.

Hence the roses I mentioned the other day...
Now unwinding with a

before bed.
