White Rose Classic


Reasons for not doing the

White Rose Classic

race today.
1 I have had man-flu for two weeks and feel pretty week
2 My back is still stiff on long rides
3 Tennis elbow still there
4 I am 50
5 The route [see profile] climbs 2800m. That is like cycling up Sca Fell Pike. Three times.
6 I have not trained for it.

Reasons for doing it.
1 It is a fantastic route
2 I am booked on
3 It is a beautiful day
4 Dave is doing it
5 I am sometimes stupid

It was a great ride, we both found it very hard, but definitely glad to do it. Roll on next year.
