The weather forecast was for rain and bitingly cold winds but knowing that could not possibly deter a fell runner off I set.
After 16 miles of rain and bitingly cold winds I remembered that I am retired and had no need to ride in etc... so I turned for home. Still, I am now over 600 miles for this year.
Anyway it was Dwars Door Vlaanderen today and I have Eurosport - so why ride when you can watch?
It was a great race and I will not reveal... other than to say that when Tom Pidcock was wondering why on his 53 he could not catch Victor Campenaerts going downhill he was told that VC was riding a 58.
"That's the reason then!" said local-lad Tom.
Although he didn't clarify if he could actually push a 58!
