Ive had this a few times, mainly after a series of crashes close togeather- its always been me, gripping too tight, being nervous etc. Try and relax, sing to yourself to take your mind off the speed.
Theres a few books about the events of 1996…
Jon Krakauer Into thin Air

when I had a proper job, used to work shifts. 6-2 we had a lunch break at 12.30(amazing innnit)guarenteed 1/2 hour kip!
Was never sleepy on nightshift-too busy playing FIFA & Tiger Woods on the pc!
I think the online florists use a local florist-do they not.
Sparx-if you let me know your GF address I could pop round personally 8)
EDIT- if she's near, with flowers obviously!
You dont need an expensive watch, but if you can afford it, and you like it get it.
And as Bushwacked has (unfortunately) found out can be a great hand ne down or gift.
Only mountainbike I have, had it for 4 years after haveing Orange 5, sub5, FSR for the few years before. Found I was overbiked for much of riding so got the chamelion, and I love it! Done big Lakes rides, trail centres etc on it and wouldn't go back to FS (for the riding I do)
No back problems, but feet start to hurt after 4 hours!
when I was in local halfrauds yesterday 'attempting' to buy a radio aerial adapter thingy (thats a whole other thread 😈 )they were putting some track pumps in the bargain bin things by the door, and they looked ok. Might be a national campaign
valleydadddy-offered to pay etc. was refused!
had to walk to find cashpoint which cost me £1.85!
told them what I was doing, no one else moved!
According to the 'lady' who accused me of theft-NO pubs,bars or restaurannts offer cash paynents or cash back!
thats NONE whatso ever, not even the two with a mile that do
Food was paid for up front, then drinks removed from table when I was out trying to find a cash point that worked. F'ed one in their pub, machine capable of taking orders in their restaurant!!!!!!!
sorry bit long winded etc, but F'ing annoyed. Needless to say no customer helpline no available, just for the holding comp. Might just have to piss on their plants! 😈
Still on the 1664 tinkering with the cyclocross bike
listening to Martin Stephenson, Golden Virgins, Heaven 17, The Smiths, The Aliens, Dizzee Rascal, The Saturdays, David Bowie, Jay Z, Snoop Dog, up til now, still rockin', Its how I roll 😉
chooseing Rachael over Deb
Not getting Jim-the-greyhounds kennelmate from the rescue place when we got him (as well as not instead of)
selling my Colnago Dream with Mapei paint! (just ordered new 'nago tho!)
I never buy the paper copy of the mag, so agreeing with SFB (that'll start him off! :wink:) I thought it would be nice to support the site. And you get to read the mag on line and have all the old ones too, well worth 15 nicker to me. Plus you dont get the fashing ads!
Used to do quite a bit off running, and when I was training for a longer run I would aim to increase the distance of my longest run by only a mile a month.
So if you can run seven miles now and you increase that distance by a mile/month in 5 months you'll be easily capable of doing 12/13! Enjoy!
