  1. I've had 3 nights of cycling in a row without crappy weather!

    Tonight on the Worth Way, there were 3 ducklings dead ahead of me on the
    track staring at me, before they eased into the drainage ditch for a swim.

    It's a gorgeous time of year enhanced by the chorus of birds in the evening
    in the fields.

    One grumpy, jealous cyclist here who's been at home from uni without a
    bike for the last 3 weeks. Looking forward to some reasonable evening
    weather to start going out again!

    Tuesday was gorgeous all day but I had to work. Tuesday evening, come
    time trial time, it started to rain, needless to say. Still, my strategy
    of putting in a really slow time early in the season so that I can hang
    on to the trophy for most improved rider seems to have been effective...
    Yesterday, it was beautiful all day, but I had to work. Today it's
    raining, but it's looking brighter now. No use, of course, got to work.

    Work really is the curse of the cycling classes.

    Do tell... Or we'll have to find some spies..

    Ahh.. GIYF.

    Well, you are nearly 2 mins up on the same course same time(ish) last
    year. Not bad at all with all that went on over the winter.

    Pretty impressive bit of Googling. What did you search on, as a matter of
    interest? I would have thought that that was pretty deeply and obscurely
    embedded in our site!

    I'm also pretty chuffed that a Google search can get you results which
    have been up less than 48 hours. Still, benefits of persistent URLs,
    what?
