[HAMR] How's Steve Looking?
« on: 18 January, 2015, 02:40:45 pm »
Just thought I would start this thread for up to date reports of how Steve is looking/feeling on a day-to-day basis. As I am not a Facebook or Twitter follower, it might be useful to have a central place where folks can post up to date reports or links, or better still Mark One Eyeball assessments if you see him or talk to him as he passes through.

What would be really cool is if LWAB (or someone else in the team) are logging all the messages/conversations relating to this facet,  over the year.

It took me quite a long time to realise that there were 3 cyclists in Mcshroom's picture.

I am not on the team but I expect that the upcoming book by Dave Barter will contain at least some of these details.

Managed to join them for a few miles earlier. He's looking and sounding well.
Got a tea shot for the archive.

Allowing for the extra cols weather gear, there seems to be a bit less of him now than there was 18 days ago. ;-)

I wonder if he'll be finding the time, or indeed the inclination to have a shave over the course of the year?

He said he's not shaved this year. Not had time. He said it takes him about half an hour to get all his kit on and sorted.

shaving is overrated. Especially now a healthy beard is a plus. He only has to remember to get the ice out of it before he heads indoors.
