By way of a further update, today was forecast rain all day. So far not a drop has fallen. Obviously past performance should not be taken as a guarantee of future performance but it would appear the forecasts may be a little on the pessimistic side. On the other-hand of course it may be saving it all up for a massive downpour all weekend but hey... if it's raining you get fewer bugs stuck to your bike and kit so not all bad.

That's because it all fell on Chelmsford. Had to go out in a massive storm. On the upside in addition to my massage I had electrical currents applied to my bottom.

Anyway after bribing a couple of Romanian hod carriers I now have a car for the weekend.

Having a chilled out day off. Cricket on TV, lunchtime massage and in between baked a Victoria sponge, a chocolate cake, a lemon drizzle, a banana choc chip loaf and some cupcakes. I'll do the carrot cake and the cookies this evening.
woohoo!

I'm not able to go to the Annual Rideout this year so to all of you who are planning and packing and excited for the week end ahead...
I hope you have a great time, that the weather holds out for you and that the roads are quiet and the ride is awesome.
It's stating the obvious that the company will be bloody fantastic and that you will all have a truly wonderful time.

Cheers my dears!

No prep needed for me, just the car keys.
Glad we only live 15 miles away

And possibly sunday morning if theres some heavy drinking going on the nite before (which im guessing there will be!)


So how many people are cramming all their gear onto the bike like me? Ive heard a good handful of people are going in the car... Shame really but understandable!
