Did a mad ride around mid and North Bedfordshire with Oakers on Saturday - taking in the southern tip of Cambridegshire.
Good pace needed a few running repairs to the jacksie. Stopping off at SuperDrug in St Neots, my request was met with the question 'did I want it for my lips?'. Intimating the problem was saddle related, I was offered the larger economy size.
Called in at Brownies' shop to refill with water, still averaging 17.6!
Pub lunch at Northill produced the first pangs of cramp - I'm going to have to watch this for the first mile or so after lunch on the LeJog ride.
Finished up with 75+ at 17.4 average - Oakley reckoned he improved this to 17.8 on the way back to Bedford - but on my reckoning that would require him to have travelled the 7 miles home at 30mph average. I am suspicious of his computer's accuracy.
The photo is of one of the curious animals we came across at the furthest extent of Saturday's ride. Oakley had a chat with it about hair colouring.
