I think you are mistaking me for the Witham peloton.  You lot couldn't even get to the Old Crown last week without following a set route  :o

I will just go anti-clockwise and try to keep up.

I think you will find that The Hustler was just following orders from above that each MEMWNS excursion must contain an ascent of TMNH - I don't believe you followed this last week did you?????

Are you bringing the fixed Genesis tomorrow? That way you could ride straight from Stratford onto the boards  :o

The Hustler never follows orders.  He is a rebel like his cousin Jezza.

We are all looking forward to seeing your expertise on the boards tomorrow.  Your experience and your coaching sessions with Sir Chris should mean that we will effectively have an extra coach tomorrow night for the group.

Do you have your own special helmet and outfit ?

Well thank you very much no pressure or anything then....  ::-)

I will indeed be doning my GB team kit and aero helmet and imagine that Sir Chris will be on standby on the phone in case I need any minor tips on the night! Just hope you can at least keep within a lap of me  :facepalm:

I will just aim for being on the same circuit as everyone else.

Have you started your carb loading yet ?

How very noble of you.... until you put the toe down a la the Santa Special  :demon:

Yes a full carb day today and I will shave the pins tonight, how about you? Plenty of 'Essex energy' drinks to be consumed this evening in preparation?

We're all about the Witham Cycling tomorrow remember.

I dread to think what OD's skinsuit would look like.  In fact, I am about to have lunch, where's my mind bleach gone.

OD is now wondering why his Witham Cycling top should be like a well known bar of chocolate.

That wouldn't exactly help with the 'double layer' would it

So, are you going for an 11kg uplift in weight (ie double your existing weight) for your track campaign ?

No, G&T is Wednesday night rides.

Espresso Martinis for touring.

Bovril for the track.

It's all part of his new get fit for 2016 plan.  No beer you see.
