NO LOVE HANDLES ALLOWED!

'It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.' Theodore Roosevelt 23 April 1910

Another Fine Ride

I had limited time this morning so was up bright and early and met Sags at 0730 for a 2 hour ride. It was pretty chilly but we soon warmed up and rode easily with a couple of tempo efforts. Sags was not at his sharpest after some hard sessions this week and I had no problems hanging on to his wheel; a cheeky headwind probably also helped as I drafted behind. I covered 63.7km at an average speed of 30.3kmh so it was a good ride. I've covered over 150 miles so far this week and am hoping to pop out early on Sunday for a quick 25 miles - I've promised to prepare breakfast in bed for Mrs Turbo Man as it's Mother's Day so need to walk the dog and be able to get back in time to prepare breakfast. Can I do it?

Forgot to add, I was 11 stone 13 lbs at my weigh in this morning. Things are certainly moving in the right direction.
