All work and no riding makes Darren a dull boy!

So off the back of 5 days of training in 2 locations - Sheffield & Norwich. Trouble is it was the conference / classroom form of training not the 2-wheeled kind! Ergo Sum diet has gone to pot and flab returned?!

That said, the training / input and networking were very good, but I didn't half miss the open road. Still managed to shoehorn in 145 miles at the beginning/end of the last 7 days though!
Up to 839miles for the month, and (a massive?) 2621miles for the year to date - all good and as I am planning a crack at my first century of 2012 next weekend, should be around 1100miles all being well for March and around 2900miles for the first quarter of 2012 come this time next week!

In other news Brad eventually won Paris Nice, Cav was off colour at MSR, but is competing at Gent Wevelgem this afternoon so here's hoping? Criterium International is also on and final stage of Volta Catalunya - "just can't get enough" it would seem?

LIVELOVE

Hope to be getting an informal ad-hoc community of cyclists going soon, have canvassed a few mates and associates and there would appear to be a positive vibe so the loose plan is to meet up once or twice a month on a Sunday Afternoon for a 2/3hr ride with the ubiquitous Coffee/Cake stop halfway. - More info soon...
Just a few blokes, getting together, building relationships, doing life and riding bikes or "Live, Love, Velo" - it's a winner!!!
