Hmmm, a pretty poor week on all fronts - due in one instance to spending four days in London and also to developing a very bad chest infection on Friday which meant I could not spend Saturday and Sunday cycling. Which is a pity as the weather was pretty good in parts. Still not feeling very well, hope it does not hang around for long.

Got an e-mail from a friend, Steve Huxter, saying, in part inspired by our attempt at the Etape last year, he has bought a bike and entered it this year. I told him we were doing it again, so now another training partner. Steve lives in Guildford so we are planning a little outing next weekend.
