Christ samuri! Were you on a recovery day or something? Did one of your legs fall off?

Nope, but it was *really* windy. Very hard work and dark when I got home. And it was the most dangerous ride I’ve done in a long time, 3 people passed me and turned left straight away within the first 5 miles. Then a landrover overtook me on the tops and I caught him on the descent into Rivington (46mph top speed). Then as I was building my way up to full on throttle along Chorley new road, some kid had the audacity to cross at a pelican crossing and it ruined my flow. Bit crap really, must try harder, C-.

full on throttle

I’m not really allowed to open ‘er up full within 5 miles of dense housing but they’ll have to catch me to nick me.
