    Sunday - Lying on the sofa.
    And done. 7:36:54. Howling wind and rain, so much that it jet washed all the lube out of the chain and left the bike sounding like there was a family of mice living in the drive train.

    A one point there were 20 riders huddled under a garden gazebo at the top of saddleworth moor, like penguins in the arctic, rotating the group to give everyone a chance to warm up in the middle.

          Its not thunder 'cross those hillocks it's the ghost of those two pillocks
          Knocking buggery out of each other with their tambourines.
