CYCLOGS

[Auntie Helen]

Got a 25 tomorrow, will let you know how I get on.

Another race tomorrow too Good luck anyway!

Blummin' second again with a 54:40 in tough conditions, lost by just 14 seconds this week, although the winner didn't race yesturday.

Second seems pretty good to me, well done!

(Although second in the monthly Cyclogs league would annoy me quite considerably again, it has to be said)

Ahem longers, 231.44 miles today? In one day? Are you mad!!!!!

Fantastically well done, old chap!

Thanks,

Not mad but I did get called a pervert for doing it on fixed

I'll try and remember some of it and put a report in "your ride today."

 

[Sittingduck]

Nice one Longers! That sounds mighty tuff stuff.

*Respec *

 

[yello]

230 mile on fixed!! Bleddy 'ell, top effort longers! When did you start? Was it an overnighter?!

 

[4F]

Oh dear.... I have been. Is this a no no then? My turbo sessions are harder than my races though.

Stone him .....

Stone him .....

it's pinky liberal do-gooder types like you that've let this country down

Longers, storming stuff my man, on fixed you make me feel unclean

Auntie Helen, I would say you're becoming obsessive on the mileage front, but I think it's way past that now

Auntie Helen, I would say you're becoming obsessive on the mileage front, but I think it's way past that now

Yep, doin' loads of miles, far more than strictly necessary. However I'm now starting to panic that if I reduce to a sensible number of miles (500, 750?) I'll get mega fat as I won't be able to reduce my food consumption adequately. I so love all that extra chocolate!

At the start of next month I'll do a posting on the CycleChat Cyclogs Social Group so we can all tell each other our target for the month and be encouraging or jeer at each other accordingly.

... lost by just 14 seconds this week, although the winner didn't race yesturday.

Pedants' corner:
If the winner didn't race, how did he win ?





... but I know what you mean

Does this mean you will need to do more long distances to hack off AH to improve your 25 time ???

Oooh I hope it's not because of me cyclogs is down. I've been logging my rides under another username and asked for a name change via email to "Domino". I got an email saying "Done" but now the site seems stuffed. Ohhh noooo!

Working ok here.

I think you are allowed to use turbo trainers provided you can get random soakings, ride on very bobbly rollers, have lumps of metal pull out in front of you from time to time and of course - get punctures. Get cold. Warm up, get cold. Stop, eat, get cold, warm up - chat and keep an eye out for others, smell the day, feel the warmth and then realise that halfway into your session there is only another half a session to go before you arrive home!

Oh! And have a few quid in your pocket to share along the way. And eat biscuits. And drop sticky drink on your frame. Then take your bike outside, get it dirty and then clean it up. Shiny like.

It's not looking good Aran, and those others suddenly keeping quiet about the fact they were logging indoor miles Maybe we need to suggest to Cyclogs that they include an extra category, you could then have:-

Road Miles

Noncey Poncey, Girly Wirly, Cossetted, Pampered, Warm & Dry, Windless, Soulless MILES

I think that should clear up any confusion nicely

Or maybe a 3rd category:-

Laid on your back lazy recumbent miles

 

[Domino]

Ah I'd clicked "automatically login" but as my name had changed it caused me to get an error page on cyclogs. Fixed now" Phew, though I'd lost my mileage then.

Laid on your back lazy recumbent miles

Lazy? You think its easy down here, watching you lot balance on your butt knuckles, fighting imaginary headwinds?
