Roger had a fairly substantial win on the National Lottery and like any self respecting husband spent as quickly as he could on a new shiny carbon bike before his wife could get her hands on it, trouble now is he needs to get his fitness back to justify the bike he now owns!
Out with Dougie mid-week and ended up with him attempting the climb up the railway sleeper steps which are quite greasy at this time of year. Dougie managed on the 2nd attempt and after this was put on facebook it was of course ridiculed by our so called friends! The camera does make it look easier than it actually is so the challenge was made, can anyone do it first try!
This was Barries' effort on Saturday and even though he made it, he did need three attempts!
Earlier on in the day on Saturday the weather was perfect for a Pentland Hill ride, cold but dry with only a light wind.
It was my birthday yesterday and Madeleine my next door neighbour and equally obsessive biker and Pentalnd Hill enthusiast gave me a hand painted card of what we like to call the "best view in the Pentlands", it even has me on my bike.......brilliant!!!
