TRAINING. 18 weeks to go...

Training plan is coming along really well, I'm trying to maintain 100 miles a week from January and then ramping it up to 200 miles per week up to the day I set off for Cornwall on 19th June.

With the weather as cold and wet as it is that means every Tuesday & Thursday I do a 1-2 hour session on the turbo trainer in the garage.
It would be mind numbingly dull but my lovely wife Debby bought me a DVD set of the top 100 climbs in the UK which I managed to rip onto a memory stick and use on an old TV....

 I have to say for no cost it is fantastic, check it out...

Mogwai are one of my favourite bands and this video is a great warm up/down. check it out.....

Ride for Ron(s)

I have had the very sad news that my Uncle Ron from Canada has passed away so this ride is now in memory of my dad Ron and his blood brother Ron from Canada. They were very close friends and called themselves blood brothers and I have dozens of memories of them both together laughing and joking with each other.

I will have to double my efforts to live up to their memory.

To The Two Ronnies.
