As the weather was OK (cold and windy but not raining) I decided to get out and check my bike during Yvette's nursery time. Just 10 miles to Wimbledon and back up including Wimbledon Park hill which is steep but short. I forgot my inhaler and only remembered 1 mile into the ride. I didn't need my inhaler but as usual, as soon as I realised I had not got it, I got wheezy. I managed to get round without dying.
I also cycled to and from the pub. It is my monthly pub night with my friends from the Dads group. I thought about missing it as I didn't need a late, booze fueled night, but I decided to cycle there and not drink. That's 10 more miles for the spreadsheet and 4 or 5 less pints in me.

Enjoy the Epic, Its on my list, but not for this year.
Most of all, enjoy every mile between now and the Etape, every extra mile is a mile closer to success, and every one will help you get to the finish next summer.
Rumour currently has it you will be tackling the mighty Mont Ventoux. If so I will be envious. Very envious.
Thanks for the datameister. The Epic was such a buzz. I can highly recommend it. Stunning from start too finish.
Mont Ventoux would be amazing. Your "there and back" sounds great. I did Guildford to Greta Green in 5.5 days when I was 19 and fit. Those were the days.
I hope the C&F went well.
