Morning all. Seeing as I didn't get in the Prudential 100, I've just entered the ballot for the 46. Done it for the last 2 years, so hopefully I'll do it again.

Warming up nicely here in the capital, have a good day all.

Good luck
I didnt get in the 100, 1 successful attempt in 3 for me

An interesting ride out, sunshine and fog patches, as I rode through Hockey Heath there was a group leaving the cycle shop, I sat in for a couple of miles, first time riding in a group for several years

Been a nice few days lately and for a few more yet.
54 miles yesterday, 57 today.
With 3 mates yesterday and group today.

What a beautiful day for a bike ride, came out the Hatton Locks cafe to bright sunshine, the fog patches had gone and it was bright and sunny, lovely ride back with the warm sun on my back, I'll have more like that please, my woolly hat went in my back pocket after ten minutes and I could have done with taking the gloves off. Back through Lowsenford and past Packwood House to Balsall Common and my regular route into and across Coventry. A very enjoyable 57 miles covered.

Off to the woods with MrsP shortly

Too much information there

The postman has not come, but I know there ain't no Valentines card there for me

Well if you had given me your address

Bicep tendon - at least 2 weeks complete rest, anti inflammatories, and ice, or risk iirreversible damage. Got the full lecture, I'm 50 years old, not a teenager, shouldn't be curling 150lbs at my age, act my age, grow up, be more responsible, delete as applicable, yadda yadda.

So at least 2 weeks of loafing around ahead.

Much as I have sympathy for your plight the Doc has a point. Sadly age catches up with all of us.

What a beautiful day for golf.
Home now and am about to enjoy homemade chilli, rice and chips. I might even force a pint of lager down with it.

The ride goes from the shop and contains people who do their rides but I don't think its run by the shop people.
