Cyclists don’t run
I’m looking forward to actually riding bikes soon - the silly show season is currently upon us - and as well as the Eurobike/SSWC/Fort William fortnight, I’ve just done Trek, a wedding, an off road duathlon (for fun apparently) and a view of the 2008 Saracen bikes. On Saturday Mark and I are off to Las Vegas for a solid week of Interbike. Once back we’ve got a fortnight to get the next issue finished (with the welcome distraction of the Marin Dusk Til Dawn race) and, with the exception of the Cycle Show in London, we can start winding down the travelling a little and ramping up the riding… As for the duathlon - doing a 5k run/20k mountain bike/5k run with the minimum of running practice now means that I’m walking around like someone just lopped a couple of inches from my hamstrings… All good fun though…
