OK Winter Whippet…
22/02/2010 by Missus Toast.
…you’ve had your fun, now bugger off!
Finding it a bit hard to get out at the moment - it’s not so much the biking in the cold that bothers me, it’s the two and a half hour round trip to get anywhere with decent riding. We actually went out for a ride last weekend, just around the local lanes and the one ridable bridleway. It was nice to get out, but the wind left me with a stabbing pain in my ears (even buffed up!), and road riding is just grey and depressing in winter, even in the countryside. I’d bloody kill for some decent offroad riding near us! 
Still, we’ve got to get ourselves out next weekend for the final big push to get Phase II finished - it’ll mainly be focusing on surfacing, so everyone’s been asked to bring along a wheelbarrow if they can. We don’t own a wheelbarrow, but we’ll still be going along, I’m sure there’s something we can do!
In celebration, I made the MOST HIDEOUS poster ever. Initially it was going to be quite classy and arty, but I was a bit pressed for time, so settled for MBUK early 90s garishness. Eww…
