Vlog: Reason never to leave the track
Tonight at the dog track, Jason that I have been working with for the last 3 years. Found out what happens on your last night at work. That’s going in a sink full of ice and water!
Vlog: Wetsuit cycling with motorcycle helmet
Speaking about cycling in a wetsuit and a motorcycle helmet. It was very, very wet so just had to be done.
Vlog: Going down slide
Going fast down a slide, while wearing a motorcycle helmet.
First wetsuit cycle since May 2012
Since it had been pissing it down all day, I made up my mind to make the most of it. So I put on my blueseventy axium wetsuit and went out a cycle. Below are some photos I took during the cycle :).

Cycling around Rutland Water with friends
Today I had great fun cycling to then around Rutland Water. So a total of 45.60 by the time I got back home. When I got to Rutland Water, I met up with Tristan and his boyfriend Dave. I have known Tristan for year, but not seen him in many years. First time ever meeting his other half. So I then did the Rutland Water section with them both. It was so much fun, hope we can all find the time to do it again at some point :).
I now only have 10.6 miles to go and I will have done the second most ever miles in a single year. Then I only have last years record of 5,066 miles to beat. Can’t see me doing that, since I have to find the time to do another 1,000 miles before the year is out.
I will now leave you with the route map, elevation graph, route statistics and photos.
