Yes it was! Not wanting to give any spoilers....but it's good to see a pretty open GC

The ale tasting was extremely good Randy.
Hopefully you'll be partaking in a few British ales soon yourself. I don't know what's available in the way of ales in Alaska, but I know some parts of the USA have some ales imported from here so maybe they won't be new to you after all. If not then Guinness is probably the closest you can get there. Of course if you want to drink Bud then you can find that here too.

We have a local brewery (the owner used to work for me and was a great tech. Hated to see it take off and lose him) that makes a really good brown ale. These days the thing I really like that is still new over here is Cider. I’m looking forward to trying some in a few weeks.The ale tasting was extremely good Randy.
That second stage today was killer. So many ups and downs. Lost my chain and could never get a good pace going. Every abrupt change stopped my momentum.
Just watched it ... boy, what an amazing last 1km
Certainly plenty of ciders over here, you should be spoiled for choice. I'm a cider fan too, especially when the weather is warm

Be careful when offered the local scrumpy. Really easy to drink apple juice with a trick up its sleave.
.Superb pub in London, by Trafalgar Square - The Harp - always have a menu of ciders. Very very tasty, but really have to be careful as many of them are 6%+ Unfortunately this is my favourite London pub so I always end up there and it can get messyBe careful when offered the local scrumpy.

Beware of old Rosie - I went from mild mannered meek marsh to trying to make beer angels lying on my back in the middle of the dance floor with my shirt off within 2 hours

My first drink in a pub was brown ale, only because that's what the guy before me ordered.
Stuck with that until a moved on to Guiness.
I have drank Guiness as my choice pint since.
Early days when draft was hard to find Black and Tan stood in.
Not me - I'll be out in TRW tonight
Not me.
I was out in the real world today, recovering from illness over the weekend.
As a warm-up, I decided to see how I felt last night by riding CG1 on the turbo by myself. I decided I wouldn't push it, just take it easy and ride in 'plod-mode'.
In fact, I achieved plod-mode very early in the warm-up, and as I started the stage I moved effortlessly though plod-plus, to super-plod and ended up in hyper-plod as all my specially selected slower ghosts effortlessly left me miles behind. The slowest bastard ghost decided to blow me away on the last mini-climb towards the finish. The little sh*t!
I headed back in to the house to HID saying 'Oh. You look tired!' as I thought back to all the good form I'd had in Mallorca and thought "F**k".
