76 miles for me on the Roadie and through the Downs, still loads of field run off and it’s kinda gonna be that way for sometime me thinks.. Still I hacked along until I got two front punctures, first was gravel, fair enough so headed into High Cross Church to get out of the wind to fix said puncture to be met with a hall full of parishioners .. Two oop’s and an apology later and I was welcomed in ” all welcome in Gods house” said the verger.. Brilliant.
Then hacked back toward the van and the second puncture blow out going through deep mud on the road, must have been flint.. Fair enough I am in the land of flint n all.. Bit chilly fixing that one, but hey..
I broke into a sweat, something I don’t do very often and it started to drip down my forehead under by fleece beanie.. First time in a long time that’s happened..
Bring it on, bring it all on I’m loving being back on the bike..
Sitting drinking tea, tingly legs, breathing easy.
