Apparently.

Build it then let it out to a business who would rather that nobody other than themselves use it. I await the mail off them asking for some help maintaining it.

Now I realise why I felt so empty and forlorn today.And I have an excuse for punching a random person in the face.....the judge will understand now too.

In memory of this I shall spend tomorrow trudging across a bleak field.

I oddly miss this.

First line of their bio on the NCA Facebook page- "the NCA is very much a community business..."
Seriously?!

Oh well.

F-k 'em. HtN took no prisoners and shone twice as bright as anything else they have control over. It's their loss at least as much as it is ours, they're just too stupid to realise it.

Anyone riding the Cannock Chase race in a couple of weeks? I might make myself an 'I'd rather be hitting the north' T-shirt.

Edit - actually that might be dismissive of the organisers efforts. I'll have to think of a better slogan.

NCA = Nationwide Cycling Acadamy?

From the front page of their website:

We believe that community based events and sports are a great way for local people of all ages to meet up in a really positive way, providing a sense of belonging and pride in the area they live in.

No you don't, you lying bastards.

I should now have a broken bike, a six pint glow and the unique feeling of satisfaction that you only get from finishing second from last.

Anyone else got a sudden craving for Uncle Joe's Mintballs?

I've just woken up screaming, with a hellish vision of what the field of despair is like this weekend. People could have died!!!

Having said that, I'm missing that feeling of achievement and pride that come with finishing last ๐Ÿ™‚

Harry - if you're missing the feeling of being soaking wet and covered in shit, while watching idiots ride around, badly, you could always don a high vis tabbard tomorrow night and shout at us ๐Ÿ˜€
