Mentally, physically and mechanically? It could be a little moist... ๐Ÿ˜‰

Mentally - No
Physically - No
Mechanically - No

So, a challenge - anyone who does NOT pass me during the race has to buy a pint for each of Terrahawk and all the marshals.

It's a "ready as I'll ever be" job I think, obviously won't be taking it seriously (I'm not kidding myself into thinking I'm fit/fast/strong enough to place well).

Looking forward to it though, will definitely be muddy but I'm thinking my feet can't be wetter and it can't be windier than on yesterdays ride, so should be enjoyable enough!

No.

Surely that doesn't matter though? I mean, if you [i]were[/i] prepared, it'd be two hours of pain, mud and glory*. If you're not ready, it's going to be two hours of pain, mud and glory**.

Simple!

*mostly self imposed glory, which is just fine thankyouverymuch
**again, mostly self imposed...

If I was fit, and had a bike with gears and brakes that worked in any form at all, I might consider this.

But as it is, I expect to fight over last place....

I'm pretty sure the company line is 'pain, mud and glory' y'know - this is a Terrahawk production, he measures success in grimaces and tears ๐Ÿ˜‰

Nah, it'll be awesome. Fast at the front, elbows out in the middle and full on bimbling at the back...and that's just the queue for the buttie van ๐Ÿ˜€

Mentally - No
Physically - No
Mechanically - yip

but the only reason why the last one is yes is because I've been bike fettling when I should have been on the turbo trainer doing intervals ๐Ÿ˜ณ
