I must admit I never thought I'd enjoy the road riding, but it's proving quite a revelation. Funny, I said something similar myself back in Jan, now the roadracing's taken over my life.  |

Know how you feel Oggy.
I was doing alright over the winter (I did alright in the Goldrush ;D) but since then I've just had more important stuff to do, and when I haven't my knee's hurting so don't want to go out!

I've got an XC bike now, so trying to put in a few good miles at fairly high speed. However i've also got a ruined shoulder so haven't been on the bike anywhere near as much as i'd like. Hopefully i'll be able to get it sorted out soon then start the training for real. So basically come september Oggy i'll kick your ass a bit to give you that incentive to train harder ;D  Only problem is i'll be properly slow on the DH after summer  |

Hi Oggy, I've started doing regular road rides from Deganwy down to Betws Y coed along a470 and back the other side, and back around the orme if not too knackered. . 40-50 miles at 17ish mph average. It's no serious thing, but getting me fitter if you wanna join me. tend to go on a thur or fri.. Just trying to go faster and further and get fitter!
Then drink loads of beer to cancel it all out!

Cool. Its much better riding roadies in a group as you can take it in turns to draft each other and really keep the pace going |
