- Nawf Kent, innit.
On my way to work yesterday I was puffing my way up That Bloody Hill (not steep, but looooong) quite happily, albeit slowly. Suddenly a roadie in top-to-tail lycra zoomed past like I was standing still, with enough breath to throw me a cheery "morning!" too. Frankly, he scared the living daylights out of me - I think a little bit of wee came out...
So, if that was anyone on here I'm sorry about the "Oh sh!t!" reply and the unexpected death weave. 
Coming home from work today I was catching up with another cyclist pretty quickly. "My turn!" I thought, and pounced, ninja-like just as she wobbled to a halt in a lay-by. I stopped to make sure the lady rider was okay and she told me "Sorry, it's my first time on a bike for twenty years". That hardly counts as a proud victory, does it?
My time will come. I'll overtake someone yet, if it kills me!
