Oh, Monday then…
So Dave the Fitness guru tells me that our ‘training’ starts on Monday…
In order to quantify our regime, we’ve all been out and done a measured off road circuit of a couple of miles, timed with a stopwatch. Then we’ll go back to it after Christmas (which itself is going to be a bit of a challenge…) and do it again - hopefully with amazing improvements to our times…
In the meantime, I’ve been remembering the disadvantage of winter riding… The grit. I’m suddenly needing to put the washing machine on every night with a drum full of gritty gear that’s going to be needed for the next day… And in the mean time, there’s a bike starting to dissolve in the kitchen. And Americans wonder how we wear out stuff so quickly…

Grit?
Well I removed at least 4lbs of it from the back seat of my car….

I’m sure that’s the hardest your Hoover’s worked all year Rob - it’ll do it good to actually have some mud to chomp on…
And I’m sure the leather will buff up just fine…
Got some nice shots from the day though… The feature should look great. And Singletrack will buy you some leather buffing polish
