Really good ride today, pretty much the same route as last Saturday, done Westerham hill instead of Brasted, Lovely crisp winters day with no wind, not much mud on the roads, good group of 6 guys, no punctures, no moaning and no shooting off the front, Upped my cadence a bit, also nudged up the ave speed a bit, all in all a cracking ride.

Only 1 photo today, burgh beech reservoir Kent in the back-ground

Its been a good week (so far)


So far so good, i should clock up over 300kms this week, I have cycled to/from work 3 times this week 45kmx3 =135 all on the fixie, I'm starting to really enjoy riding the fixie. No polar sensors on it, been trying to pick up a speed and cadence sensor of ebay no joy yet, If anybody has a speed+cadence sensor for s-series polar HRM get in touch


Going out early on Saturday with a few friends from Dulwichparagon 90-100kms, I'm going to work on my cadence try and getting it up a few RPM, I'm still only putting in the slow miles, feeling good for it.

Sunday i plan to head down to the Surrey hills on my own for 80-90kms, avec mp3 I have stuck loads of music on to my Ipod, mostly 90's indie stuff that i havent listened to in ages, stone roses, definitely maybe, parklife, all change, moseley shoals etc etc, Plus a couple of new albums, Razorlight,Jamie T,Klaxons, Tokyo police club.

My cycling calender is filling up fast, so far

  • March 6 days cycling/training around Nice, watching the last 2 stages of Paris-Nice
  • May Gran fondo felice Gimondi

I'm back

Saturday 20th

Good long slow ride today, I was out with the dulwichparagon splinter cell, Pissing down as we set off this soon eased but returned just in time to soak us as we climbed brasted, The ride included the joys of Woldingham,Ide, and Brasted, Not really hills,,,I only call it a hill if i have to drop down from the big ring,
