So the plan was to go do a clubride today in Heidelberg. While getting ready the heavens opened and the plan was abandoned, got back into bed and decided to wait till its time to go to Xumbugs, cause the rain would have stopped by then. So I left home at 6:45, got there, only a handful of idiots pitched. Literally just stopped when some serious drops started coming down again. Quick chat, we heading home.

Decided to do some laps in the suburb, and if it does become unbearable, I'm not far from home.

After first lap - mcbride, delphinium, hennie alberts, swartkoppies  - saw it was 6.8 k's and took about 14 mins, so by doing 8 I will get in a good 2 hrs +, which should give me a 65 k+ ride (as its 10 to Xumbugs and back).

It basically rained on and off the whole time, on lap 5 it started raining seriously hard. Already wet, I made up my mind to do 2 more laps and call it a day. Halfway through lap 5 a snake bite started forcing some air out of my rear tyre and I took the shortest way home. Ended up with lotsa wet stuff, 1:35 riding time and 43.4 k's.

Maybe I need to join that CA support group? smiley9.gif

 

Tmrw will probably be a perfect day for riding - but I wont be there, I'll be in church getting some food for my soul.

 

PS - The Heidelberg ride got interupted by rain after about 20 k's, and they got back soaking wet.....

Trubie, you hardcore dude.

I was planning to go out this afternoon, when I got back from dropping Hummy off it was dark again and the rain started again. So ZIPP riding today.

Hopefully tomorrow I can do a few km's.
