So what's your excuse for being sat at home reading STW, and out on your bike on such an awesome day?
I've got to build a wardrobe, from scratch, not one of those flat pack ones! And broken hand still needs a couple more weeks to fully heal. Really wish I was out on my bike! 🙁
wife's away (all weekend) dairn sairff and I'm looking after the offspring - managed an hour with them in the bike trailer yesterday but it's getting a bit small for them both now and it was a bit cramped/hot/uncomfortable so I had to knock it on the head 😥
Rear wheel's in the LBS after breaking a couple of spokes yesterday 🙁
Revision.
I'm revising as well 🙁
I was out at 8am, did 2 hrs road riding, got the rest of the day to chill 😉
Already been out for a couple of hours and am now relaxing before hitting the supermarket. Oh joy.
Another one for revision here too. 🙁
I'm lazy...and recovering from t'other halfs grad ball last night.
Will be heading out a bit later though, and I've got the day off work tomorrow so will be out for a longer ride then.
already got 2 and a half hours in and cleaned the bike, fear of sunburn has now brought me indoors, riding in this weather is, as you'd imagine, quite hot.
Broken Pelvis. I have a sick note and everything.
****in' cold is producing a lot of green snot so prudence dictates that Aberfoyle SXC is not a good idea.
May go for a tour of the neighbourhood later, though it's about to start pishing down here...
I'm in work!
Would normally go out for a ride later on this evening, but have managed to give myself a rather nasty groin strain while training for a marathon next month.

unless I were intending to go jumping I'd ride with up to 4 broken spokes 🙂
Rode into w*rk this morning but am stuck here 'til 20.00. 😥

Both my bmx wheels are missing a few spokes! Seems to make **** all difference, but they are 48h
Got my last university final tomorrow so going to have to wait till tomorrow evening!
Too hot here, I'm waiting till this evening, there'll be fewer walkers on the Quantocks then as well.
Hangover of doom. Chundering etc.
Not good.
Still recovering from smashing my shoulder a few weeks ago and still in pain 🙁
gonna go on the quantocks later when its cooled down a bit,
Just got back 🙂 Cleaning myself up a bit then heading into town to meet someone for a roast dinner.
took the weekend off after nearly 2 weeks riding, big road ride tomorrow. been off 2 weeks and still 1 to go 😉
BBQ hangover,riding later though
Got in at 4.30 this morning after a friend cracking 40th celebration. Can feel the alcohol sweating out my pores, had a great ride yesterday anyways
It's nearly midnight here & I've got work tomorrow. & been studying most of the day.
my last exam ever (i hope!) is on tuesday... however i have ridden for the last 3 days, slept on a beach last night, and will hopefully be hitting the gym later. wed and thurs will be going to laggan, blairsomethingorother and golspie. then fri and sat hopefully SW scotland. a week later i'll be on my way to norway for a week or so cycling, then i've just got 2 weeks to finalise my fitness for 5 weeks at [url=www.bikevillage.co.uk]bikevillage[/url]...

Wife indoors writing essay on history of midwiffery. Me under gazebo, just about to get in paddling pool with kids. 🙂
Cant complain though, rode MachX Fri night & Tarw at CyB yesterday. Might try sneak a lap of the Monkey when cools down before dark.
I have a brain haemorrhage. Hope to recover enough by evening time for a blast around the woods though.
Riding later when it cools down and everyone buggers off.
+1 for riding later
Just dug a drainage ditch in the back garden and now supervising the wife cutting some steps into a slope
Been in Afan since Friday. I am battered, bruised and burnt. Going for a spin when it cools down later but for now STW, telly and food.
Been out this morning for a road ride, just cooking a chicken for a nice salad and then I'll head back on, possibly for a bit of mountain biking.
3 hour road ride earlier with partner. Now admiring comedy tan lines and re-hydrating.
Recovering from viral induced Pericarditis and Myocarditis, banned from riding for 4 weeks. 🙄
Still, grateful it didn't kill me and all that...
My front forks are leaking air faster than I can pump it in, my mates bike has stuck pistons so when I rode it the front brake jammed on, the back brake is now doing the same - Im doomed. Perhaps I should drink beer for the rest of the day.
Knacked me back - six weeks off the bike so far, hopefully not too many to go....
Paintball Training... but going out biking in an hour 🙂 Going to be truly fast asleep by 9 i reckon...
I'm in Ethiopia, and its election day, and we have been advised to stay indoors on safety grounds.
Which is a shame as I finally have my bike, and I built it this morning!

At the beach, waiting for the evening session.
Mrs on nights so have the kids. Its too hot to ride any way.....so I keep telling my self.... 🙄
rode 42km on Munich's boring fireroads criss-crossing the wald.
off to the alps tomorrow for a day of 'wahey!'....
Its too hot to ride any way.....so I keep telling my self....
It actually is imo, I had a quick ride earlier and was soaked with sweat within about 15 minutes. Rather be in the beer garden!
and i've just realised i'm a bit drunk.... had to check my last post three times.
... stopped off at three biergartenen on the eway.
Still not very well - had a bit of a relapse in the last week or two.
Spent the day sorting the bodywork on the van. After the most awful trip to Halfords, it has worked out beautifully. Looks as good as new. Riding tomorrow instead.
had the family over for roast dinner.. gonna give it another hour for the heat of the day to cool and then hitting the dusty dryness...
Did the Chatsworth 10km race this morning (running). First 4k was uphill, and about 25 degrees C. Tweaked my calf muscle, so been chilling in the sunshine with a fridge full of beer 8)
Shattered collar bone. 😥
Been out, 3 hours this morning over the Devrills and Longleat, bl**dy marvelous............... 8)
no excuses from me
100 mile road ride on friday
gentle 27 miler yesterday
Glen T today
60 miler tomorrow
60 miler on Tuesday and Thursday
70 miler on Wednesday.
I'm gonna be raking in the mileage whilst weather is good. I'm fortunate not too sweat too much and love the heat, just hate the wind
More running than riding for me these days as wanting to try my first half-marathon later this year. And after a 8-mile run this morning all I've been capable of since is sitting in the park talent-spotting.
Did Glasgow-to-Ayr on the road bike yesterday though so the weekend wasn't totally non-bike.
See my boys every weekend. The come first, ride in the week.
Travelled from Rochdale to Sheffield in the G/F's car to pick up my new bike from JE James 😀
Can't wait to get out tomorrow now!
BBQ, hangover, play with son, amuse wife, Work.
It is a weekend, after all
Went out yesterday for 8 hours, nearly passed out, decided to drink wine today instead.
I went hill walking all day yesterday in the blazing sun trying to keep up with some Munro baggers then cycling for 5 hours today in similar heat. Discovered that a clump of vegetation was concealing a tree stump so I'm in a bit of pain. Nicely bruised and worn out for work tomorrow :-).
I had D of E in the peaks. walking up Winnats Pass and Mam Tor with a big rucksack is not an experience i would like to repeat.
