A break in the training

Is it really only 38 days to go?? What was a pipe dream in August last year draws ever so closer to reality........
Welcome to both Phil and Nick who have both joined us in the last few days. We are delighted to have you join us. Our number is now 25 which is the number we had always aimed and hoped for.
I am suffering extreme withdrawal symptoms as I sit on a beach in the Canaries. I can't believe that foregoing one week in my training schedule would make me feel so guilty. I know that you are all training hard and I am falling behind whilst maintaining domestic harmony. I shall have to train harder over the last five weeks! Having seen the video on Youtube of the Tourmalet climb I need every minute of training I can find!
I am out with Scott and Ian on Sunday doing the Ashdown Forest Ride that was promoted in Cycling Plus. Anyone care to join us we will meet at East Grinstead at 8.30am. Thereafter, with the evenings getting ever so lighter, I am going to do a 1.5 to 2 hours training ride most evenings. Anyone else up for it? Meet in West Wickham/Hayes area?
Thursday evening, April 17th is Colin and Nathan's fund raising do in London. I shall be there. It would be great to see this being supported by as many of the team as possible.
See you there?
Mike
