Ffffff-freezing cold for most of last week, yet despite the climate's best efforts I still produced a 247 mile week out of the proverbial hat! - That makes it 1460 for the year to date, which feels better (well it does to me)
Today dawns and although a cool start, the sun shone and by the end of my 42 mile jaunt it was beautiful - perfect riding weather cool, bright, and little wind - loving it - only downside should have prepped the posh bike, but atill managed to do a shade under 18mph average for the ride so all bodes well.
In other news, Bertie wins in Murcia (subject to UCI making their minds up on the whole clenbuterol thing).
Cav has stated his intent to ride all 3 grand tours this year, but first up will be Milan San Remo in a coupleo f weeks. Paris-Nice kicked off yesterday, and Tirreno-Adriatico starts Weds. Giro d'Italia has announced 23 teams are to take part this year.
Finally I looked at Olympic Track cycling schedule with prices today - cheapest tickets £20, rising to £325 dependant upon session and chosen seating, sessions are also only 1.5 - 3 hours max. - Think i may stay home and enjoy daily highlights in the comfort of my lounge - come back Manchester Velodrome all is forgiven!!!
