Had a very frustrating day today. Just 82 miles so I thought I would finish early and get a massage. Not to be. Set off as usual after sunup and made good speed. There are 7/11 along this route so no problem with food and drink. Ray was feeling the heat so I said I would wait with him and let our group go on, big mistake. We had lunch together then left to do the last 20 miles but he then went on to have 3 flats. The truck came out looking for us so by this time Ray had had enough and decided to take a lift. I said I would cycle on my own, 8 miles, to the hotel. Now there was a headwind and a bit of a slog in the heat. Arrived at 5.00pm, briefing at 6.30pm so no massage for me. Poor Ray but tomorrow it could be me. Still extremely hot and humid, we are soaked through within half an hour of starting. Feeling fine and coping well. Good stuff.
R: Must be the EPO kicking in. Loved that comment.

ReplyDeleteHi Mum
ReplyDeleteGlad you are still enjoying your trip ! The heat must be unbearable at times.
We are all so proud of you however I over heard one of Rosie's nursery teachers ask her where her Gran was away to and she replied " I don't know because all she does is bake cakes" !!! If she only understood what an amazing person you are but I'm sure she will one day.
Take care of yourself loads of love xx
