The Hills

The 3 of got together on Saturday 15th August for a 120 mile ride. As usual Mark sped off into the distance (whippet!), Greg plodded along in top gear and I chased along at the back sweating (nice!).

We started a little late - due to my alarm clock and an accident on the M6. 120 miles is a long day and we didn't finish until just after 9pm as darkness was already with us (and only I bothered to take lights). I'm used to Cambridge hills - so going into the Cotswolds was a horrific experience.

We averaged just over 15mph which was our target and only Greg, as usual, had a few mishaps. E.g. 2 x punctures and a broken spoke. Back to the bike shop for Greg!

Here's a couple of photos of him repairing his bike and looking increasingly unhappy :-)
