One other thing I found when building up my distance was not to get too hung up on timing yourself, relax into it... if the body aches/hurts slow-down or stop.... if you feel good keep going... too much addiction to times will only result in you pushing your body when it doesn't fancy being pushed. Contrary to what my perverted PE teacher used to shout... pain isn't 'good'....! But as I said, he was a bit of a perv....

Bugger - sorry - the above video is called 'hold your horses', didn't come up in first posting, so had to explain the comedy moment...!
Part of 'running their business' - is interacting with potential punters who have already walked into their store, asked grown-up, informed, questions, and been promised a response. I'm NOT naming them on here as I think that would be wrong at this stage; so far I've only named the quality response.... Condor. We are their business, we ensure they have a business to run.

Sorry to post again - but would the two bike shops listed above who owe me a call since Monday morning on the Oval or the Vigorelli like to ring me... the money is burning a hole in my pocket and at this rate it will be without doubt C2C (Cash 2 Condor... see above....)..... you know who you are...
Oh, if you're not monitoring the LFGSS site... WHY NOT!

Locking my bike up before Christmas I swapped lamposts with a courier round the back of John Lewis in Oxford Street... we got chatting... he claimed to have been a courier for almost 20 years.... and he looked 107. He'd lost count of the number of bones he'd had broken, the fines for going through red lights, and the bits of his bike he'd had knicked. The only thing that made him laugh any more was.... those people who wanted to become cycle couriers.... and this... I believed.

Fully understand the problem... my best friend from school.... so I've known him 30 years.... has a wife who can't stand me.... and I've only met her once... her dislike for me is so strong that when he got married, she insisted he had TWO best-men..... and I was to be the number 2... for my 'best mans speech'... i got to introduce the wedding cake! I've never once been to their house, or met his kids of 8 years, as it would involve me meeting his wife, and she won't have me in the house. On the phone she's the most two faced bitch this side of a.... well two faced bitch.... the only way to get messages to my mate is to text him as she's never passed on a message that I've called in her life.... anyways when we do get together... (he doesn't live in London....) I make darn ferking sure I lead him soooooo astray just to get my/our own back... needless to say he refuses to do anything about the problem! Only solution...... kill the fuckers with kindness.... sarcasm is so so so effective when delivered with over-the-top good manners....!

OK... I'll offer up the lead from The Hurt Locker....... Reckon he'd have no trouble with the E&C roundabout at rush-hour.
