Worst Start to the Road bike year ever ?

[hennbell]

Due to unseasonable warm weather I took my first road bike blast of the year on Sunday. If a bike has been away for a long time I like to take it for a week end shake out ride before I make the trip to work on it.
An hour long ride, paced about 21 mph, resulted in the curry based lunch and coffee returning unexpectedly. I did not have to stop, kept pedaling and puked 4 or 5 times . Then to top it all off I got run off the road by a old blue mini van (people mover).

Oh yeah and we are going to get a foot of wet snow today ....road bike goes back to the basement.

Oh dear.

puking while riding at an average of 21mph!?

Thats a skill I have yet to master

 

[jonathanw]

if I could manage 21mph average on my commute......I'd be happy to puke

Hope you feel better on the next ride!

He was trying to keep up with his eruption. Didn't want a good curry to go to waste.

It was probably the puke on his windscreen why he never saw you,

At least you didn't do a Greg Lemond 1989 Tour special.

If I kept an average of 21mph im sure i'd do the same.

I can't believe no-one's flagged this up yet - curry and coffee?!
