Alcohol and Training

It is a well known fact that like oil and water,cats and dogs,men and shopping, alcohol and training do not mix!!

However it was my birthday on Sunday and Patrique had arranged to do a come dine with me experience at his house.The deal is we all turn up with a bottle of wine and £10 each for the charity while the host prepares a wonderful meal. A win win situation!
It is said that a group of scientists in Switzerland are looking for the smallest thing in the universe, a mammoth task that is costing trillions. I could have saved them the trouble because the smallest thing in the universe is my will power.
The next day I felt awful and I was to go on a long ride with Chris(colossus)Winters. After missing body pump,Colossus backed out so I was left to do my first solo ride, something I would have to get used to in Spain.
With my new birthday cycling gear I took off though Hatton and Claverdon, which was great and really helped to clear my head!
I am now on a serious no alcohol mission.......that is until the weekend .
Though I must say that the CDWM was great so I have attached a video of the day.
Thanks again.
