:o)
I have started to write up my version of the Dun Run from last month but I haven’t found the time to finish it as yet, that’s still to come. I’ve been on holiday in France with the Family and had a wonderful time! That’s accounted for the last couple of weeks and a pretty mad time at work did for the rest.
I’ve managed to convince the management at work that sending me to VMworld in Las Vegas would be a great idea! I’m off out to the US on 12th September and I have a whole weekend to burn before the conference starts on the 15th! I’ve got a couple of plans on the boil but nothing firm yet - I’m trying to get a days riding booked in Red Rock Canyon, I need to decide who to go with. I’ve got a couple of contacts from the Strobist Flickr group in Vegas so I’m hoping to organise a shoot there too; should be interesting!
That’s us in the background, asleep on the beach - just left of centre, me in grey and Rob in red. Jonesy is sitting up contemplating the 40 something miles still to ride!
Spotted in the cafe at Dunwich!
That was that then: Dunwich Dynamo 16 - 19th July 2008. It all went according to plan, apart from getting soaked getting to the railway station! I’m too tired to recount the story now so here are the figures: More later
Miles: 161.5 (Dun Run was 119 the rest is getting there and home)
Average Speed: 17.23 mph
Calories: 7200ish
Time: Not sure! 20:45 in London until 05:15 at the beach, one main stop for food at Lavenham - assorted piss stops and one puncture.
Sleepy, very sleepy!
