Tea? (Part 4)

[Bobby Mhor]

Mr Mhor

Just back from the Shire of Derby, where there is a severe lack of 3G - what did I miss?

I sent up the Fubs signal on Sunday...
the usual prattle

 

[172traindriver]

At least someone missed me! Yup seems the need for permanent connection hasn't quite reached the White Peak area yet.

Having a good time - nice weather?

Excellent Mr Fu thank you.
Knee warmer/arm warmer optional weather. Gilet sensible option.
Windy but nice in the sun, 3 days so far, been doing mountains everyday as we ain't got climbs like that at home and got 210 miles in so far.

Loads of cake

Pant. Obvs tho.

 

[172traindriver]

It sure did. At one stage I looked like an old English sheepdog. Couldn't see a thing.




You spent allllll weekend lighting it??????

Hope your Barnet has been returned to it's pristine condition

 

[Fubar]

Doh......it should only take 1 or 2. Not a boxful

I had 2 left on Saturday night so tried breaking them into quarters - didn't work so the whole lot went on...

 

[172traindriver]

We're VERY friendly up here...

Nice!!

I saw it but was stuck in a valley - too busy trying to light me woodburner...

Good going! Didn't realise it was a cycling tour - is this a group thing? Some guys from our club are off to Corsica in April.

No flammable liquids to hand?

Only gin. And Mrs Fu would kill me if I used her Bloom.

Do Mallorca spring and autumn most years. My mate from Inverness comes out a week today, and we are here till the end of the month.
We were out together a couple of years ago and he is a better climber than me, but I have been putting a lot of effort in for the last 12 months in particular.
I am trying to climb most days so it will be interesting to see what the gap is like this year.
I have been on the rollers virtually every day through the winter when I can't get out. He hasn't been training so much. Should be fun.
Got to admit Corsica looked amazing during the TDF a couple of years ago.
It would be nice if you were to put something up about their trip. Doesn't tend to be top of British cyclists training destinations.
It is almost as if Mallorca is becoming a victim of its success.
Please tell what your mates say

Nice one - I should hear all about it, think it is an organised tour with Marmot tours? I think!

I would like to go abroad at some point - if my climbing is poor, my descending is worse!

I will look forward to that. Cheers

I do love descending. My mate would put a few minutes into me on a 5 mile climb, but I could catch him before even halfway down. We used to joke about a 2 man time trial, he'd climb, I'd descend.
I would love to descend on a closed road
