Set off on a last training ride before reality bites and we are back to work. It was freezing throughout the ride, with all extremities (and I mean ALL) quickly going numb with cold. Took Kev over a few hills today, skirted Billinge, climbed Ashurst Beacon and a few around Parbold area. There were patches of ice over the tops and we had to be really careful. Cafe stop was like a scene from that film Cocoon, blue rinses everywhere. Fuelled up with Flapjack and Tiffin then continued to clock up another 40 miler. Came home a little light headed, but soon wakened up when I switched on the TV and found Leeds knocking Man U out of the FA Cup. Get in there. (Pic on left shows Kev avoiding skid marks in the ice, I mean skid marks on the road!). Wonder what Lee has been up to today? Breaking chains? Fitting wheels (the right way around)? Maybe counselling Australian female joggers?
