Shanghai Sunday thread

[TLW1]

Sitting on the turbo just spinning my legs watching the GP.

Legs very 2nd hand after 3hr run followed by pushing the wife around town on the wheel chair, then met some pals for a mountain bike ride and they both turned up on e-bikes 🙄

Run in town organised by the gym, maybe another run with a pal.

Pub later

You need to stop this running malarkey, it’ll be the end of you.
Errr, run later. Bathroom.
About ten years ago I laid a 12mm ply base screwed at 150mm pitch so the tiles wouldn’t move.
They didn’t.
Ten years later I’ve stripped said floor and it took me two days to get it up. Testament to my diy I support.

Tip of the day, put some tape over the screw heads, that way when you need to to do it again they might not be knackered in ten years time,

😂 probably cut down next year, but some races on this year……..

 

[Homers Double]

Are those races? That’s a crazy schedule!
I’ve got a 70.3 on the 6th of June and as usual have late it pretty late.
Swim pace, happy.
Bike, happy ish.
Run, dreading it.

Morning peeps. 20 mile road run today with not enough training and having never done the distance before. Dirty Reiver next in 5 wks. Mr T, when my brother turned up on his ebike the first time I asked his how long he'd been disabled or infirm, he wasn't impressed. He's just fat and unfit. 🤣. Seriously though for some people and ebike is a good idea.

 

[Homers Double]

No, it’s just cheating.
That said as I rode up Englands longest uninterrupted climb yesterday in the rain I’d have given anything to be home ten minutes earlier.
It was a horribly cold end to a crap ride.

If my still-fit riding buddies turned up for a ride out on their e-bikes; I’d just lead the way on a longer than normal route. Knowing the batteries wouldn’t last. Pedalling 22kg back home up the hills would be interesting viewing…..

Hello?

Where tf is everybody?
I thought I was late.

@oxoman, @sungod @seanoconn @PhotoNic69 @TLW1

Anyhoo, a bit grey and murcky. Would like it to lift so I can pedal in better conditions. Must be going soft.

More Coffee abuse methinks.
Laters

Pretty gloomy here (outside) coffee in hand. Whether to Zwift this morning before going to Auld Reekie to meet daughter no.2 for lunch or leave it till later, Hmmm?
Will have to take the MX5 and get it dirty!

I was surprised how well an e-bike for a friend coped with this 50-mile route... still had used just half the battery, and sailed up the big climb of the day with a smile on her face.

Anyway, I'll be putting a beef stew in the oven to cook slowly soon, as I'm jettisoning what's left of a chicken dish that had been in my old broken fridge, and might have been the cause of a 'lively' night belly-wise.

I find it's better to be late on a weekend morning...
