Team Solutions - Great Nottingham Bike Ride

I have been waiting for the first cycling mishap to happen so that I can write something amusing and poke fun at one of our team. Unfortunately it doesn't seem so funny when it happens to yourself. As it was rather glorious this morning I thought to myself that there is no excuse for not getting out on the bike. I was enjoying my bike ride, this was until I pulled the front brake leaver and heard a metallic clang, as well as the bike pull over to one side. I have managed to break the spokes in the front wheel. Unfortunately I was cycling light, no phone and no money so it was a long walk home. My guess is that the local BMX track was not such a good idea last week, although it was great fun. So it looks like no cycling this week. Still at least this time I only have to take the wheels back to the shop.

It has just been pointed out to me that we have ONE HUNDRED days left to prepare for the Great Nottingham Bike Ride. This sounds like an eternity but I know how time flies. In no time at all we will be in the saddle cycling around Nottinghamshire. That reminds me, I must get back on track with my training (my bike will be going back to the shop again at the weekend as every time they fix it comes back broken), I will also see how everyone else is getting on with theirs. Hopefully with the lighter nights and warmer weather we will be cycling more.
