Gratuitous Naked Photo Post

For those folk that enjoyed the tale of the early morning wake up call by the nearly naked runner, here’s a quick update to show you that she still hasn’t learned her lesson. I was out of the house early this morning as I was volunteering at the running (RPTT). My plan was to do [...]

Finally the time trial bandwagon arrived in Richmond Park and I was there to “enjoy” the inaugural event. What a gorgeous day!

The launch date for the Richmond Park version of the weekly UK Time Trial has been set for the 13th October. The route details have been posted on the site and so today I thought I would go and do an early morning reccy. The plan is to meet around Pembroke Lodge and start the [...]
