Day 13

Rider: Andy
Bike: Tifosi Fixed
Location: Camberwell SE5
Conditions: Mild, breezy and wet.
Total Mileage: 10miles (5 miles each way)
Route: Walworth Road/Elephant & Castle/Blackfriars/Farringdon Road/Chancery Lane/Gray's Inn Road/Theobalds Road
Time: 8.45am
Food: Tea, Innocent Smoothie, 3 Weetabix/honey, M&S lunch, Organic Carrot Cake with Orange flavored Icing and Nibbed Nuts - yes it was forced on me again, Tuna fishcakes and Cabbage and Leeks, Activia Yoghurt, Innocent Smoothie.
Mechanicals: Non
Idiots Encountered: Well apart form the odd person running across the road on their mobile in the dark and not looking, then it was a quiet night. I was overtaken at the lights by a wippet on a fixed - real scraaawney guy, showing off his track stand at the next set of lights. He then shot off and took 100 yards on me. Arse. That is until i realised he was heading up Camberwell Grove (hill) and yes, it would have been rude not to have caught him. Made an old man very happy, but very knackered.
Gym: Chest - Is there no end to the pain i have to go through - firstly i was made to do push-ups before even going to the gym. The 2000m on the rower - knackered now - then I was made to lift some bloody heavy weights. If I am not fit as fuck in a few months i want my money back.
