I see Sundays stage includes some of my very favourite local training/pleasure roads. Lucky riders, and lucky me, I can ride out and watch. |

Great race and it should be longer, I enjoyed when I rode it. The road surface and the weather makes the race harder than it actually is. And the confussion of the Electric Brae for all the foriegn riders.  _________________ When offered the choice between the path of Desire and the path of Virtue I chose the path marked Diversion.

Is that that surreal descent that looks like a climb? |

PNut, I'm confused. Are you suggesting I had a weak back, or are you asking if the race was a week long? Nah, it was a three day, but due to a back problem - I have no spine - I packed on the second day after I'd done about 12 miles. |
