Just got back from my 2nd attempt at Werneth Low, hmm... two
stops still like last Wednesday (one of which was to mess
with me shoes but I was glad of the rest too) but NO
WALKING!! Hurrah. Fiday affy's flat session must have
helped. Not even had chance to get the City Jets on yet
either. Time came down a bit too - five mins less than last
week. It's now a quick 45 min loosener...
Bugger me though if it didn't go and snow on me while I was
on the top. Cold too - and yet, when I set off twenty mins
earlier, I was almost considering just wearing a ss top
rather than my rather fetching e-bay special Nike ACG jacket
over the shirt. Good job I didn't.
No headache this time, so coffee is now OFF THE LIST for pre-
ride drinks.
Oh, there was a bit of walking - on the downhill concrete
hairpin, which were too slippy for me. Hard to walk down
even! And the git in the BMW behind me was getting a bit
close for comfort too. Still, he was fatter than I used to
be so he'll be off down the heart clinic soon enough.
Funnily enough, I wasn't even cold. Until I hit all the
watersplashes on Green Lane, then my feet were a bit
inclement.
Now I'm off to try and loosen up a spud.
Excuse the witterings of a fat blerk, but I'm still chuffed
and maybe some other fat blerks will get peddling too. Then
I won't look quite as out of place... oh, but I mustn't look
too out of place now, cos a bunch of yoofs I went past never
even sniggered, let alone threw things at me. Result!
bfn,
Tony B
ps I will try to take some pictures of the Low nest time
out.
