Headwinds. They both blow and suck..!

No matter which way you ride, unless it's in a vacuum (& then, you wouldn't be riding for long..!) you're gonna suffer a headwind.
I've been out today, following a new route... Well, getting happily lost actually... but the training was made that much harder for the persistent headwind I was seemingly always riding into.
All good practice though, I suppose.
Right now, I'm sat under a huge shade tree, enjoying a cold 100-Plus (Isotonic drink) and taking 10.




Once I've got a bit of energy back, it'll be time to head back home and review all my gear again.

I'm still needing some new camp/town shoes... Ones that are light and flattenable, so they go in the Panniers easily... So I'm off to a sports-gear oriented mall later, to see what's available. At the moment, I'm training with a bulky, heavier substitute pair, so anything smaller and lighter will be better.

So, it's now less than 6 weeks until Tom hits Asia, we get our various visas, and begin Roadwarriors 6!

Before then, I'll have the other main website journal up, and there'll probably be more training entries here before the trail entries begin...
More to come soon!
