Hmm. Short week this week ruins my training plans. Throw into the mix that I needed to have my car at work this morning to be collected for it's service AND its set to freeze (-2 and below) overnight tonight. Not ideal.
So - I formed a plan at weekend. Won't get my usual 100+ miles in, but it will be better than nowt.
Did 30 miles on Monday. Nice pleasant spin around. It was cold and slippy (bit of black ice) but a good ride.
Tuesday - No riding. Into work in the car to take my work office books/files and clothes in.
Wednesday. Couldn't commute as car needs to be in work - so got up at 'normal commute time' but left house early (4am) and did a 20 mile Marple/ Hayfield Loop then showered and drove to work for 6am. Was a very wet ride but warm enough.
Thursday. Probably skip tomorrow (commuting) if it's as cold as they forecast. Allegedley dropping to -1 by this evening then -2 or -3 overnight ALL night. Ice ice baby.
Friday. Get out Friday morning when temps are up and do 20-30 miles. Normally a rest day, but needs must if I don't ride Thurs.
Saturday is an early kick off at old Trafford (leaving at 10.30am) then out for a birthday meal and drinks in Manchester so Sunday may well be a non starter for training.
