Probably nearer to 9am I think

Hurrah! Another 15 minutes in bed.......

Poop! Or, say I say, MERDE!!!

I've only gone and kinked two rear spokes on my new Aksiums.... done up the cassette nut too tight and used too much strength to remove it... tres annoyed!

I've kinked them right by the hub on the drive side and so its just a matter of time before they go, so I am going to have to pull out of this, and, if Frank is reading this too, next weeks tag-along to Harwich..

Such a Rodney!

I have the tourer still, but, not for this sort of ride. Merde Merde MERDE!

Have a great ride, sorry Big M....

Now what to wear tomorrow? Forecast is 8C rising to 15C so if I wear my Night Vision I'll melt in the afternoon. I could go with ss top and shorts and hope to keep the pace lively... decisions, decisions...

buff/armwarmers?

& kneewarmers

As ever it is core body temperature that is the issue not my arms and legs. Knees and arms are happy down to about 5C

 

[redjedi]

You need one of these Martin.

The short sleeve base layer with arm warmers which aren't actually arm warmers.

or is it the other way around

 

[martint235]

Weather still showing sunny but with a lower max temp so Night Vision it is.

Really looking forward to this ride now!!
