2009-04-26 Sun - 6am London Marathon Ride

Wow that was an eventful day.

Woke up at 4.45 arrived at brighton station at 5.30 only to be told there are replacement buses and they wont take bikes, shit bugger wank, manage to persuade the bus driver to take my bike and I make it to the ride. Wow guys that was an awsome atmosphere and just incredible navigation stills (joke). Only we could get lost on a marked out and marshelled course. Followed by cold beans but i did not care because the company was good.

Unfortunatly the journey back to brighton was not so good. I visited the folks in epsom then headed back to brighton, however when I arrived at Heywards Health I was told I could not get on the replacement bus service and would have to either do a 3 and a half hour detour changing on 3 different trains, or leave my bike at the station and get it another day. So I took the third option and rode back to brighton which was amazing but very very hard work with no brakes and 72 gearing and also after not much sleep and doing the marathon ride this morning. Yawn

Thanks to everyone
