We're having a lazy morning on our wedding anniversary weekend away. Ideal prep for next weekend??

Mrjude has pulled strings to borrow a lovely pristine lightweight boardman hybrid for me as we're going out riding the trails today. Lucky me :)

I'm off at 7.48 on Sunday in Leeds. Unless I DNS, which is a distinct possibility given how this weeks training went.

Lammo, I noticed that your session said 'road'.

Even mixed isn't very tempting.

7:28 for me, so I can definitely have Jude's bike - number 1991. A great year, I went to big school.

I've been in a lake. Remembering how bad I am at sighting. I did sight a lapwing though. Which was nice.

I'm in the same wave as TRO :-S
What the hell did I put as an estimated finish time?

That might be a friendly pair of feet to sit on in the swim though :-D

I won't be finished! TRO might be.
My sister's off at 10:35 so I'll be hanging around until she races at least. Don't think I'll have to drive all day though so I may be on the beer

Has anyone in here had a skinsuit successfully altered and can recommend a source?

It has been pointed out in photos that mine appears to bunch up and become more of a 'flappy' suit than skin suit, and so somewhat negates its purpose. I was looking at other options, but from our club supplier (Champion Systems) they are either go for a kids one, but they're too short before they achieve a sufficiently small chest size, or go for a speedsuit, but that's a lot more expensive for something I still can't guarantee will fit well.

So I'm left looking for options on making my existing one smaller around the chest. Anyone got any recommendations. Cheers

Oh, and on the Leeds ITU, they've resurfaced the roads around here for it (about a km from the park), but have put signs up saying its a temporary road surface. Maybe they don't want us getting too many grand ideas, and are going to return it to its usual crater field straight after the event ;)

Has anyone seen my oomph? I think I left it round here and I can't lay my hand to it right now. I'll need it for training in the morning.
