    Not sure I agree with this. I only have to pedal about 100 meters up the road

    Cheers DT.
    Quads are paying in pain though.
    They must have been bloody soft.
    Run 3 mile with Ernie every morning I don't cycle.
    Nowhere near your fitness though, best of luck on you forthcoming BG.

    Took the crosser out onto Haterall Ridge... 10 months of no off road riding have done the world of good to my confidence, speed, strength and technique... WTF? Where did all that come from?
