Managed to miss a turn on the Cotswolds Sportive yesterday.
Resulted in an extra 8 miles and 1500ft of climbing. What a twat!

Nice. Whereās that?
I want to get back into doing a decent amount of cycling, but itās just not happening at the momentā¦
Believe it or not itās about 40 mins from my house - itās the road up to the Clyde Murshiel Country Park near Lochwinnoch.
Itās a good 3 mile climb normally but I was struggling yesterday with bad legs and a strong headwind no matter which direction I was heading.
No point forcing yourself out Neil if you canāt be arsed - once the weather picks up a bit you might feel like getting back in the saddle.

2 x KOMs, not very fit and barely having to push on, something to be said for a Force 9 
Your legs will thank you for it next weekend

Itās possible that the driver deserved it.
People sometimes behave like cunts when they drive, even when they donāt otherwise. The difference when itās a cyclist on the receiving end of the distraction/speeding/aggression/couldnāt give a fuck/etc. instead of a car is that the cyclist dies.
I made no judgement either way.
Iām sorry, I didnāt mean to imply that.
Itās just that cycling to work most days I see in some drivers a level of indifference to the safety of other people (i.e. me) that makes me livid.
And yet you still feel the need to justify yourself.
Good for you.

Some cyclists are cunts too.
Very clever drive/gear change

Amstell Gold, best finish to a bike race ever??
Looked all over with 35km to go, peleton no chanceā¦
Skip through the interview and thereās a replay of the final couple of KMās (baring in mind theyād done 265kmā¦ not flatā¦ to that point!)
Just awesome (cause heās not even a roadie really)
It was a remarkable win Dan - how on earth they have the energy to sprint full tilt at the finish is mind-boggling.
Iām looking forward to seeing how the rest of the season develops as there is a great batch of younger riders coming through.
Never mind the final sprint he pulled back over a minute pretty much on his own in the last 3km then went on to out sprint the hangers on (albeit JA & JF were playing with each other, MK & MS werenāt!) . Thatās mind-boggling over 265km
