I have suffered a grevious injury
After 20 miles and climbing up to wytrop mill the route took us across a farmers field using his tractor tyre ruts as a cycle path
Road bikes aren’t really suited for farmers fields so halfway across I fell off pulling a calf muscle
However I struggled on bravely the hero that I am as we tumbled down the scree slopes in the rain, I can be your hero baby
Had to drop out with 8 miles to go which meant that I got the pick of the rooms and all the hot water so a result then Tomorrow is hell day; I am suffering now in a pub for you dear reader

Arrgh, the things that befall a working field reporter. Take 3 pints, rapidly, follow with a shot of scotch, and call me in the morning. Tommorrow will be better.
I know the area well,that was no mountainous climb you attempted,you FELL off after riding along the wytrop mill flatlands boulavard.You fell off,I WANT MY MONEY BACK.Rained a bit did it.
Now, now boys! No fighting or I will come over with my big stick!
Did you forget to bring your wet tyres?
