Reliably unreliable!

So we approach the big training camp now - I hope over the next two weeks I will be able to give better service to posting but I do know the internet had not arrived at Club La Santa last year! They have an internet cafe which failed to download the basic homepage of hotmail for my 2 euros and at the exchange rate I ain't spending a fortune on that!!!!

The last week has been great we are having brilliant sunshine EVERY day since last Wednesday - remarkable. It has been so warm you would be forgiven for thinking you had moved to the Adriatic coast. But unfortunately for those UK bound souls the thermometer is falling back over the next two days just as the Lanza posse get out of here! You'll be freezing, and the posse? The prediction is 26 degrees in Lanzarote mmmm, luverly!

Made good use of this recent fine weather 80 miles Saturday and then Stratford CC had its reliability on Sunday (Yes, I nominally organise, just be thankful there are a few competent people in the club that make sure it actually worked!). 150 riders and we all had a great time. Picked up over 300 miles last week so I am well on target for miles, picked up a few lbs too so I am way off target on flab fighting bah!

For the second year, I punctured right at the start of the reliability - almost at the identical spot! Fixed it a bit quicker this time and another solo effort for me, finished a lot quicker and had something left so I must be doing something right.

OK, gotta go, loads to do before holidays, if I don't blog whilst there think about me getting some rays

Hey Wedge, what's a reliability?
