Stuff & nonsense
Gaiters
According to the Oxford English Dictionary gaiters are: –
Bone idle
This weekend I will mostly be not getting out of bed, cos I was a lazy git.
Alone
In Lerwick Archie MacDuff stood looking out of his kitchen window. The horizon was empty, only the grey clouds moving past proved that he was not looking at a painting.
A further manly tale
In Lerwick, Archie MacDuff stood looking out of his kitchen window. He watched the huge seas crash against the hard beach, while the fierce wind blew the few trees over at right angles. It looked a fine day.
Cycle 2006 – London Excel
It might be out of the way, being quite a trek for the moles from the heart of Surrey to London’s Canary Wharf but last Friday we made a special effort to attend the first public day of Cycle 2006. The resulting 62 shot set of Cycle 2006 photos are up on Flickr, with the labelling process ongoing…

The law according to Sod…
…and how good can come of it.
Trigger’s broom
Sunday saw me finally clock up 3000 miles on my Rift Zone which I bought in January 2003. Inevitably it’s a significantly different bike to the shiny beast I bought from Cycleworks in Leatherhead.
For the record
With a full year of riding stretching ahead of us, we thought it worth taking a few moments to log our respective bike mileages for posterity and a potentially sobering review in due course.
