not talking about Cadel Evans in the Tour De France i'm
talking about the sun finally making an appearance for the first time
mid way through the British summer!
In sublime conditions "Jockstrap Mchenley & "Mega Mcsporran" put easy kms behind them cycling along the Solway and through picturesque Dumfries before beautiful cross country spinning with heaps to see due to the absence of those bloody hedges!
In honour of Cadel's effort the boys also conducted their own time trial to Castle Douglas - according to "Jockstrap" the leg would have been close if he did not have to replace 17 spokes and his bike's drive train!
The day was pretty uneventful although in a first Mchenley rode
a 5kms by himself apparently embarrassed after Mega let rip with a 150 decibel expletive after his panniers came off his pannier rack for the 452nd time on the trip.
The sun is out , the room we have has a view of the river Dee and our shower actually has water pressure above a dribble ... what more could one want ... oh yeah that's right just maybe for Evans to win the TDF!

Well you got you wish and Cadel did a superb job. Kev, the next time you are out training with Cadel remember this is why you can't keep up with him, although he only raced for a bit over 3000km, not like you 2 marathon men. Oh, and by the way Cadel also had a few mechanical incicents but never once lost his way.
