Back from Poland now and surprisingly not adding too much to my ninety-something kilogram frame. Some self-control does exist in me after all?!
Mind you, we did return with 4 bottles of vodka, some of Mal’s mum’s cooking and enough chocolate to sink a small Asian nation’s entire navy fleet so the damage isn’t totally done yet.
Back on the bike I headed out to the top-secret training facility, known to some as Richmond Park. Bit sad, but I wasn’t really up for solo navigation of the Chilterns or anything more mentally challenging. So, RP it was. While out there I spotted another lfgss member and ebay bike nutter Roberto. We cut a few laps together before he had to bail whereas I had lights so I grabbed a couple more laps. I lost count of my laps when we changed direction but it worked out to be 71.7k mostly sitting in the 130-150 HR bracket (E1) for aerobic base building. I have no formal training plan at the moment so I’m just going to be getting in the miles as they say.
Speaking of Roberto, if you want to buy a track frame, he has a sale on now. Be quick as lfgss members are already drooling over them!
thrrrrrpppppp. ya can keep your park, i’m off to put some miles in down the coast road…
Bastard!
Enjoy. Hmmphf! 😉
