Cycle training in USA

Cycle training in the snow is going well, but up hill is difficult due to lack of wheels and peddles.

Med Men getting themselves ready

It would appear that the med men find it very difficult to meet up together for bike rides! so individually they are busy sorting themselves out.
Dr Jeff is so much in doubt about his fitness for the epic ride that he has sent him self off to the Americas to take to the Hills for some stiff climbing. Mr Dickie has left the Country and headed off to the Southern tip of Europe for Heat awareness training ,which I understand is having a bit of rain at the moment. Mr Kelly is a happy man now he has his accommodation sorted for the trip. Meanwhile I have bought myself a new bike for my birthday, which is supposed to cover the miles more quickly and best of all comes with a view as standard.

Mike solo Market Drayton trip

45 miles approx via High Offley and Cheswardine on the way out and via a couple of miles of sloppy canal and Bishops Offley on the way back. Hard work on one's lonely tod, but fortified by an excellent pint at the Bell, Eccleshall on the return leg. I've got a 'James Penny's house' video but have no clue how to upload!

Back on those Shropshire hills...

Nice 2 hour ride with James Penny today on his Norbury Junction loop. Managed to offend a wooden faced old dear at a cafe and not to break my back again. The old dear may have poisoned my egg and beans as I had terrible heartburn for the next 4 hours or so. Not too fast, but great to be back on the bike for a good practice spin.
