This bloke should stick to cycling! (Actually it's a pretty good time!)

It is the Chris Boardman by the way...

He was interviewed on BBC and said the ankle he broke in the TdF back in the day gave him some real pain in the last few miles - as you say a good effort

No time to cycle properly today, so went to the gym and did spin
Good work out, certainly my cadence is getting better. Mind you there were one or two distractions
I think Daz had this problem a few weeks ago

58 miles 3 cols, one very big bu**er, others smaller but very steep @ a commendable 15mph. Went with Dougie madman, solo and unprotected. Trouble is he always wants to cycle 1mph faster than the speed you are going, whatever that speed is I think my tongue was hanging out the entire way Pain and suffering only relieved by some superb descents, max speed 45mph, probably very silly
I felt very ill when I got home and had to sit down for an hour to let my metabolism return to normal.

Cycling with dougie madman - you really are taking this seriously aren't you! You'll be racing Tom on his TT bike next - have you bought the aero helmet yet?

Serves you right for going out with Dougie - that really is asking for pain and suffering .
"If it don't kill you it makes you stronger" as some other cycling bloke said (I think).
Had a grim experience myself yesterday, running, and ended up going to bed at 8.00pm feeling dead . Possibly been overdoing things slightly!!
