OK so the intent didn't quite match the actual output in terms of mileage and effort this last week - only around 75 miles covered.
I did fit in a trip to Aldi to purchase some Crane Sports Compression wear - £9.99 for shorts and/or long sleeved top - bargain!!! - i got both
The Vuelta has commenced and in amongst the biggest collection of stained riders for a long time (Vino, Valverde, Basso etc) Spartacus won the prologue on a shockingly wet track (Millar would have had it if it were not for the rain i reckon!) Congrats to Ciolek to for coming out of Cav's shadow to finally win a stage (oh yeah Cav isn't racing that'll be why!)
The Vuelta is always a hard one to predict, but lets hope for a decent battle and also that they eventually do get to Spain itself rather than skulking around northern europe as they are at the moment?
Tour of Britain starts in 12 days too, so more cycling action this month than you can shake a spoke at - oh and today is the last day to pre order your new Fat Cyclist gear too.
In other news I am the proud father of the holder of 9 GCSE passes, so my not so little girl can now go to college.
