i actually rode my bike today! i know! nothing like a bit of last minute training. this time next week i'll be somewhere on the a9 on the way to strathpuffer. in typical style i'm some what under prepared, but i can assure you this is the most 'under prepared' i have ever been. exciting.
it was the fresh snow that actually enticed me outside today. enough to make everything pretty again and to give just enough grip on the frozen/thawed mud. i got lost twice but discovered two new downs, not sure if i'll be able to find them again. at least 'puffer is on a marked course. also, there's going to be some baking later (photos tomorrow) and if 'puffer doesn't completely break me, then the first bivvy of the year isn't far off.

sbrt- oh yeh! i'm imagining you doing a little dance whilst saying that-hope that's ok ;)
trio- not at all. will mail you.
you'll be as fresh as a daisy (a strange saying i find) and love every minute of it...once you've finished ;-)
With full cheerleader gear and pom poms but in a manly way of course =)
uc- i think my attempt at running last saturday has scuppered any 'daisy' tendencies i might have had!
sbrt- of course ;)
