Visiting Chequered flag on this occasion to see 'The crafty Cow'. The lady who repairs kit and bits n pieces. Actually really good.
Don't care who you are, how much you have, how powerful you are. You still sit on the toilet with your pants around your ankles. Yep, it's a level playing field..

Looking at the yellow weather warning for over night. So far, it should be passed by tomorrow morning but will check out in he morning. At the moment, I'm still going for it.
Will up date if things do change...

Nothing positive about being in Clatworthy Phil :roll:

This is a summer shot from Gurgle maps. Phil though it nice when under 2ft of mud ~x(

Only just stopped raining here. Visibility from bedroom window less than 100 metres. Might go out this afternoon if it clears but not setting off 08.45 for the start at Bridge.
You know I'm up for most rides but I want to enjoy my riding, not endure it.

Yay, it started off wet but had some fun. Well done Darren coming up to bridge for the start.
