Traitor!
At least that's what my three think of me.
On Saturday we were in South Wales, as Nathan was riding an event (round 2 of Rudy Project time trial series). Whilst in the Welsh Valleys we went to see Vernon's daughter and her parter. They have a cat: Charlie. Charlie is an absolutely sweet and entirely mad black & white boy cat of about 18 months old. So when we got back to deepest rural Norfolk, there was mucho sniffing by felines and looks of *disgust* that spoke volumes... "We *know* you've been making a fuss of a strange cat...." I am forgiven, though, as Waffles brought me a vole yesterday. Nathan won the time trial :-) Cheers, helen s -- ~~ you may need to remove dependence on fame & fortune from organisation to get correct email address ~Noodliness is Good~ |

Nathan won the time trial :-) Congrats! I got back on my bike this weekend. First time this year. Two thoughts: 1) Owwwww, my sitbones hurt! 2) Oh, how the mighty have fallen. (Okay, I was never mighty, but I was stronger than this!) As for cats, Oscar doesn't seem to care if I've been playing with other animals.

Helen M OOWW!!! ;-) If we are down that way again, I'll drop you an email in advance. If we are there for cycling, it's all very cycling intense and not exactly relaxing. Working back from the start time of Nathan riding, we work out a timetable literally down to when he eats before an event and what he drinks... and at what time... he takes his cycling very seriously these days and his improvements are starting to show. But it would be good to see you. The event at the weekend was based around Llandeilo, and we met up with Vernon's daughter Michelle (she works in Cardiff). Not this weekend, but the following it's up to Doncaster (ish) and after that it's Devon... When he's doing an event, I mentally cycle every pedal stroke round the course - I cycle to the start & watch him off, then I pootle over to the finish & wait for him to cross the finish line and in the waiting period, I fret.... and worry... and hope he doesn't puncture, etc., etc.. In Wales there are hills and I don't do hills, but I did a few of the inclines in Welsh valleys at the weekend :-) Cheers, helen s |

"Monique Y. Mudama" wrote in message ... 1) Owwwww, my sitbones hurt! Need to get buns of steel again ;-) It wasn't so bad going on a little test ride Saturday. The trouble was when I got on my bike *again* on Sunday! I tried "riding" without touching the seat for a while, but eventually the pain in my thighs from holding that position outvoted the pain in my tush from sitting. Always does. Today I feel kind of like someone kicked me repeatedly on my tender parts! (Fortunately not *those* tender parts -- yay for cut-out saddles.) 2) Oh, how the mighty have fallen. (Okay, I was never mighty, but I was stronger than this!) I *know* that feeling! Every season. (Probably because I am a definite fair-weather rider, and tend to show off my sloth ancestry during the winter.) A guy riding by me (granted, it was my second lap of the trail) while I was stopped, wheezing, offered up, "This sure is a long climb!" Really, of course, it isn't. I offered up, "It wasn't a long climb last year!" -- monique, who spoils Oscar unmercifully pictures: http://www.bounceswoosh.org/rpca |
