Loving October, the seeingly endless rain has...er... ended, and the sun has been doing a great job! An indian summer? Global Warming? - Who knows, fact is the Cayo has had a week's worth of riding and it's all good!
So stats-wise, first double century for a week since end of July - just shy of 205 miles, making 7,335 ytd. More in the tank too, that 9000 is on!
Short week this week, only 4 cycling days available, so will front load on mileage still aiming for 160-170 if poss? Dry weather is looking like lasting throughout so shiny white steed will continue!!
In other news, not much to report in the commonwealth games - Am i the only one who gets completely confused that all these Brits are wearing different colours?! The Aussies pretty much whipped our butts in all cycling disiplines so far - but i am comforted by the fact that they are all technically Brits anyway, albeit the remnants of ex-convicts from 200 years ago! Millar got a bronze to go with his silver at the Worlds. Watch out for him in the TT.
Radioshack grabbed 3rd place with Steegmans at Paris-Tours, which pretty much sees the end of the Cycling Season on the road.
And finally (very news at Ten) got an e-mail offering me the chance to take part in L2P24 2011 - just look who is in the marketing picture:
Yup, that's me 6th from right, yellow gilet.
More soon.
