Well I'm lying actually, I do know where it came from, I know I've started my phase 2 pedal plan with extended mileage, (a new weekly record of 116 miles this week) but I have been very very strict with my grub. If I think about it I have taken my eye off the ball a bit food wise of late, this week has seen me back to my strict no nonsense self about it. Back to fruit and veg snacks instead of the odd slice of toast and I've got wifey to cut the portions down meal times whose sizes were creeping up again. But bloody hell it's hard, she is a fantastic cook!
Onto the pedal last night, it was pissing down but I went home on the cut, onto NCR5 and did the Lickey loop for 16 miles. This is what I looked like when I got home:
A bit damp, a bit dirty but loving every minute of it!

The only downer is that my Muvi helmet cam seems to have malfunctioned, maybe it didn't like the rain. Every time I plug it in to my laptop to download last night's footage a "USB DEVICE NOT RECOGNISED" error message pops up. I've done the usual re-booting thing but it doesn't want to know. It looks like a new one might be on the cards. Unfitguy has found a good Muvi clone on Ebay that might be getting visited soon!
A usual Chapman start to the weekend this evening with a family visit to the Dodford (check out the new website). Tomorrow I'm stagging on all day with the Spawn of Satan as wifey, daughter and my mukka's Mrs Missus are off into Worcester shopping for new outfits for the Rugby Club's end of season dinner and dance. Me and my mukka quite naturally will be wearing our weddings, funerals and job interview suits with Club tie. It's easy being a bloke!
As there'll be no pedalling until my MTB trip on Monday morning I'll wait 'til then to post a new Blog. Have a good Bank Holiday weekend folks!
