@classic33 - it was, with crowds the whole way up.

As an event it seemed to workk.

That they enjoyed it, is the main thing.

Been watching in-car footage from a car trial. Well from my mate's Suzuki X90, actually. Totally bonkers.

I wouldn't mind having a go at some point, actually...

Anyways, time to head off up the wooden hill.

Nunnight one and all xxx

Morning .
It is gradually becoming lighter here . I think it is grey out .
I had another dream last night . I met 2 female cyclists whilst out on my bike and we arranged to meet the next day for a ride . The dream stopped then probably due to adverts . It made me wonder though ! I don't think that I have seen many female cyclists out this year .

Lorry driver shortage !
When we came back down the M1 on Wednesday it seemed full of lorries ! I've never seen so many before !

The climb was about 270m versus the stated 330m, with it dependent on when the holder let go. Racing uphill over cobbles in the dark:

Basically it was entertainment between the crit races yesterday and the road races tomorrow, which is fine.

We were positioned under the speakers for the podium, which hurt the ears. Otherwise OK and a bit of fun for an evening.

Ere! That person's got no lights on their bike !

Oh!
I went out and caught fish and chips last night . The price had gone up . Cod is now £5 and chips are £2.
My brother tried getting some later but the shops he went to had shut just as he got there at 8.45, they were supposed to shut at 9.

Grey wet day but no wind. Not going out in that and the next few days look worse.
Sat watching the water swirl down from Loch Etive towards the falls of Lora. With the swirls it is easy to imagine water monsters out there.
DIL has taken the kids off to Glasgow for shopping and left the dog in kennels. I am now in charge of a somewhat puzzled cat but the dog is too big and boisterous for me to take him for a walk.

Ere! That person's got no lights on their bike !

No-one had - they were racing on a closed route.

You would have fun on my son's Tuesday night training then; no lights whilst doing 90 minute chaingang in the dark. Yes, the circuit they use is floodlit ... mostly.

I've descaled the coffee machine and glued the handle back onto the potato peeler that came off when I forgot to not put it in the dishwasher!

I just had a thought: Chocolate digestives.
