Re: Tour of Pembrokeshire

[butcherboy]

If today had been any other sportif rather than the Tour of Pembs I would have stayed in bed! But as it was our local sportif, felt I had to make an effort to take part. Well done to all those who did. Roger and I decided to do the short route as did 99% of those who registered. Well done to anyone who mangaged the long route – not sure if they’re brave or mad! Considering the poor conditions, Roger and I were pleased to get around in 3 hours 50 minutes. Well actually, I again won our unofficial race; despite Roger elbowing me out of the way and desperately scrambling to get his chip read before mine to gain those extra few seconds, he still managed to come in a long 5 seconds after me! Roger being Roger he took it all in good spirit and rumours that he was heard to loudly declare “he allegedly beat me by 5 seconds” are totally unfounded!I think that makes it 6-0!! Never mind Roger – always next year!!! 😉
