3rd day sitting in hospital so no riding for me. HID rushed in Thursday, emergency op yesterday, recovering today. Hoping to take her home tonight as don't fancy another 24 hours in a chair! Only positive is I get to stay with her all day and not just visiting hours as I'm her carer and there aren't enough nurses to help her eat etc. The next time you see my ride on Strava you'll know we've finally escaped!!

Watched the end of yesterday's stage at the cow and calf Ilkley yesterday, tough climb to finish the day for those racing. Off to Halifax for the start tomorrow and Leeds for the finish. It's going to be warm. I'll wave if I see Jim.

I envy your spouse handling skills more than your bikes or riding ability.
“Oh honey I just got back from Riding in the meditaranian and I’m going to run up and watch a race this weekend.
Oh, and when you’re taking out the garbage please be careful when going by the MGBGT. Thanks. Oh and happy anniversary. What that was last week?. Sorry”
She's with me, my daughter lives in a town called Brighouse near Leeds, so we pop up to visit and watch a bit of the racing. Today we visited the Yorkshire Sculpture Park, a very nice day out. Someone made a tree out of a tree, I'm not very cultured so it's a bit beyond me.

And amazingly, my true name with just "(cyclechat)" instead of "(team cyclechat)".
Great ride Randy! 
You won the live race fair and square after I didn't manage to catch up with you, and towards the end you were just pulling away with nothing I could do about it. Conditions in my loft meant that I couldn't make my usual watts and towards the end my HR was up at 170 ish with me only making 200 watts or so.

sorry to hear missus is a bit crook whorty - hope you both escape hospital soon - gws mrs whorty
Alcudia probably does explain the miles.
The elevation may be down to the route. Did you stay on the MA-10 or drop down to any of the bays on the route, like Port de Valdemossa or Port de Roller? WE just rode the MA-10
Sorry to hear this. Hope she gets well soon and you're both back home.
Slightly reluctant to ask, but what is the problem? No need to reply if you don't want to.
I thought this was the best excuse I've seen for some time.
It made me laugh ............. and I fully intend to use it for my next underperformance! Even though my trainer is in the garage!!

I thought you were toying with me after you caught me then dropped back. I pumped up the tire oiled the chain but most importantly dropped my weight. I love to eat and it's been 6 weeks of not eating anything good in preparation for the double devil. It's tough but I'll be foraging through the UK in 26 days. You will be able to follow my progress by the news reports of bakery outages and cider shortages.Great ride Randy!
