What time were you thinking Tommy? I might sweep up for you. Need to wash my bike first mind you. Rode lead cyclist for a local 10 mile running race yesterday, and it's sat in the garage absolutely minging at the moment.

Was all I could do to stay ahead of the elite front runners on the uphills I can tell you.

But if nothing else, it was a stark reminder of why it is so good to use a turbo, with a fridge, radiator and central heating all within easy reach. My toes and fingers were freezing!

But earned the badass label.

Who's up for doing a hill climb later?

I was going to swerve it but I need something to counterbalance what I've eaten today and what I intend to drink tonight. I can't believe I'm 37 and only just discovered the simple joy that is a box of wine. 3 bottles in one innocent box? Don't mind if I do

37?!?
Suddenly I don't feel bad about you beating me so easily yesterday.
Now young man, you keep drinking that wine-it's good for you

If others are up for Goat 3 at 5 I'll tag along at the back. Looks like about 6.5k up, and the rest down. Could be an interesting one for those of the more 'muscular' physique .... sometime to gain on the descent Perky is only one to complete so far at 42 mins .... a sub 50 for me would be a target then.

Looked at his ride 269 watts that's avg isn't it?, not bad @Perky77

Cyclechatland: the only place outside of Eastbourne where 37 is considered young. I may just stick around!

If you knew how much abuse I put my body through in my 20's you might be a little harder on yourself Bob

I'm surprised it's taken Tommy so long to overtake us codgers.

I quite agree, at 92, I think I'm doing pretty well!

Chase? Don't you mean the 'follow'?

Good point .... but who will we be following?!? A very steep up, followed by a steep and fast down. Could be an interesting ride
