[HAMR] 16th October - Teethgrinder Day 70/289

[Shreds]

An 08:30 start today, lets see where that takes Steve. (Heading East inevitably).

[Chris S]

Well. He's not afraid of the weather, is he? It's rotten here today - strong northerly, dense drizzly rain.

Go Steve!

[Shreds]

Doing the 365, I am sure a bit of rain is inevitable along the way Better further South in London and almost dry and tropical on the South coast.

Go Steve!

Just overcast and light northerly here in Ely - much the same as yesterday. 

I wonder if he will do the few extra miles to make the 50,000 today... 

Go Steve!

[Basil]

Isn't he only 115 miles short of 50,000?


Go Steve!

[Arry-R]

Well. He's not afraid of the weather, is he? It's rotten here today - strong northerly, dense drizzly rain.

Go Steve!

No point contemplating record attempt if you have any fears of wet weather! !!

[Wowbagger]

It's been like Bloody January Again here for the past few days - cloudy, damp and the temperature struggling to get into double figures.

Isn't he only 115 miles short of 50,000?

Yes, I reckon. He should hit 50,000 at around 7pm, so we can raise a virtual celebratory cheer this evening.

[Wobbly John]

Isn't he only 115 miles short of 50,000?

  Sorry, it's been a busy week at work. I was thinking 215 miles. 

[Wowbagger]

Well, the sun's* over the yardarm and Steve is over 120 miles on Tracker.

Cheers!

* Pity the bloody thing is obscured by thick cloud.

[Shreds]

Well I will drink to that.

(Such mileage are so difficult to comprehend in ten months....except to a special cyclist such as Steve).

[Wowbagger]

Except it's more like 8 and a bit months, after his injury.

Except it's more like 8 and a bit months, after his injury.

Not yet seven months if I can count...

[Wowbagger]

I meant the cycling time available since 1/1/2015, given that he was out of action for about 4 weeks and then cycling one-legged for a few more weeks after that.

[hellymedic]

OIC...

[Basil]

Another biggie. 

Eat, sleep well Steve.

Eta.  216.6 now up on Strava.  Great day Steve.
