who's idea was this


someone (simon), has a new non-tesco light and someone else, chris thought some 'training' for sits would be good. our ride didn't start until 21:30, it was still light but the dark clouds were threatening. by 22:30 we were completely soaked and huddling in a bus shelter consuming cake and whiskey.

a unanimous decision was made to cut our loses and head back. simon's light had been declared brilliant and there was no need to practice 'riding around in muddy circles' anymore. on the journey back the rain stopped, we snatched some gritty singletrack and the bike and myself needed a good clean before coming inside. it was just like winter again, except a lot warmer-ace!

we have a tesco light as a helmet light ( with our hope 4leds ) it's really powerful.

your mad btw... there I was last night watching a film and having a beer - and you were in the dark wet night riding around.... lol funny :)

You didn't mention the 2lb of home made chicken curry we found in the bus shelter!

It was still frozen in a huge tub and Simon even tried some!

Great ride and mud - tired today tho :-(
