Friday; did some time trial training with another local cyclist behind a moped then got home and had a minor skinful. Saturday, rested and had quite a few glasses of vino. Sunday; Rode 12kms to meet up with the racing club, then rode 75kms with them, going 35 to 40 kmh. All went well until the last 5km when I was knackered and they went faster so I got pasted by them and finished 1 minute behind. Riding with a double hangover might have taken the edge off my form. Then had a BBQ and plenty of wine to cheer up again. Next weekend I might stay off the wine on Friday or Saturday night and they'll be faced with MTT's secret weapon; intermittent sobriety. I'm starting to think this endurance sport thingy might involve less booze than rugby, but you can take the man out of rugby, you can't take rugby out of the man.
