you reckon?

i slept in, left home at 7:20am and proceeded to try and catch up
thinking i might be able to get you by Kangaroo Ground or at worst th
caf.
I seemed to get EVERY red light and actually had to stop at Springval
Rd for a car!
VERY WINDY!!! uphill and windy is not my bag. grrrrr
Got to caf, ready to die in the arms of coffee and muffin BUT NOBOD
THERE!!!
After 10 minutes a rather bedraggled lookin Ess93 rocks up and tell
how he did the same as me, but a bit later!
We ride the rest, very cruisy as it didnt seem to matter which way w
turned it was a feckin headwind. PLEASE EXPLAIN.

To make it all worthwhile tho, found a Malvern Star 'Skidstar' in ver
good nick (once i remove weeds,foliage,mud,racks,dynamo,chopper bars
clapped out seat, etc
The new SS project perhaps...

I was out on a family ride yesterday and noticed a trailer bike with an
unusual frame for a trailer bike (you notice these things when you're
also towing one). It looked remarkably like the one you found. I wonder
if they did a home made job on one.

argh bugger.. I left the corner at 7:30 on the dot - looking behind me for
the first few kms hoping to see some late comers. I took the shorter
Kangaroo Ground - Eltham - Foote St - Burgundy St - Boulie route. Tail wind
through Eltham was unbelievable in 53/11! Lots of others out and about
today even tho the sky looked nasty.

I did get up at 06:00 after being pumped watching stage 20, but I felt
drunk due to a 13hr day at work, then up till 01:30ish watch TdF, and
thought it might be better to get a tad more sleep. Back into work
again today. :TRUCKING-MAD:

Just looking at my Polar stats, and of course altitude isn't spot o
(close enough), I'd actually climbed 1380m today...I guess all thos
little hills add up

I'm curious now as to who's tyre track through the Paris-Roubai
section it was. When I could only pick up 1 line I was hoping it wa
Dutchy and not GPL, as I knew how much Dutch likes his muffin an
coffee. If it was GPL, well...its all about weight isn't it Mr Lam
heh
