when it is warm and sunny. Did the last round of the midlands XC today at Sherwood Forest. Thought I would use the singlespeed to get a bit more time in on it before dusk til dawn. Hmm, I forgot that I really am not a short course racer. Ouch. The elite mens leader lapped me 3 times I think, so I was hoping that I wouldn't have to go out for my 4th lap after I had started cramping and run out of drink. Yes I did. Oh well, at least it was fun.
Almost no fireroad and constant singletrack = smiley Matthew. Just a shame by back now feels broken and my legs don't work. Having done 2 hours of pain, as of next week it's back to the local cross league for just 1 hour of horror every Sunday. Good times.
Mrs. Lea enjoyed it too, she had a picnic blanket, a picnic and a book to read. She thought it was much better that all the other rubbish bike races she has been to (SITS 08 in particular)
