hi there folks.
just thought i would warn yooz all that lizz all though a lovely lass. has been known to slightly under estimate things i:e distances...elevations .... cream teas.. even the harshness of the odd coast to coast cycle ride. so dont think you are in for a easy three days..... as dare i say it the woman is madder than a mad thing.you want proof well, i have proof , i have just done the stretch all be it arse about face , i did the stretch from staindrop to tanhill. thats a twenty eight miler.it took me three hours twenty.that was with the wind in my favour. walk in the pub and ask for a cream tea dont do cream teas here said the landlord. fib one fib two if you read the write up on the streach from tanhill to staindrop she has written somthing like woopee it all down hill from here. be warned. and very afraid.
Sun 05 Jun 09:49pm: OK. I want to keep the good sentiments between Cycle Team Sweaty running strong for the next couple of weeks but every batch of sauce needs a dash of pepper to spice things up. Here goes...If you were able to read and then understand Popster's blogg you'd understand that 1. he has a drink problem and 2. he left school to work on a farm at the age of ten. Given that DO NOT worry about what he said because like a scene out of Planes, Trains and Automobiles he was GOING THE WRONG WAY!!! The 28-miles of uphill will be 28-miles of downhill. Next time he'll be warning everyone to put their wheels on the right way around. (Liz Hibert)

Marty has been quietly turning his pedals over the last few weeks but, being senior and afraid of computers, has been doing himself a sweaty mile-o-meter disservice and not reporting it. Well from my recollections of phone calls over the last few weeks he's done a 20, a 30 and a 40 followed the next day by a 27. So let's congratulate him and add 117 to the mileometer.
