To add to the wonderful summary from Lance.....
We started the ride today at a cracking pace.....forced to
stop after a 9 metre sprint to the cry of “my seat, my seat, my seat !!!!!!”
Lance was on his new steed for the first time and wanted to
use his new toolkit....seat adjusted...we set off again at a cracking pace....
Rusty Merckx was off like lightning, Spokes, Crank and Lance
in his wake....but he has no idea what the route is to be, cue the next stop, 5
minutes after the first.....
Lance knows the way and cruises to a stop and promptly demonstrates
the only way to dismount a new steed, with grace and elegance.......
Once Merckx, Crank and Spokes had finished their extended
gut wrenching laughter and picked themselves up off the floor......we were on
our way again.....
Cue hill after hill after hill after hill.........after hill......and the odd blizzard for good measure...
Towards the end Spokes offered Lance a performance enhancing
blood transfusion....which was declined due to the excessively high alcohol
content.....Merckx and Crank step in to save the day.....and the transfusion is
successfully administered ‘Top Gun” style....
Back to base and another run completed....looking forward to
the next outing !!
