I've worked back through my route for the weekend's trip North, which looks far harder than it did at first glance (currently about 420 miles over three days). In fact, it's resulted in a shift from mindless over-enthusiasm to moderately sober consideration.
I'm now 50%, "Isn't that a bit much for the likes of you? Small, small, whiny, whiny, mopey, mopey.", and 50%, "You're a naval-gazing tossbag, just give it a go and if it's too much get a train".
I just want to get into Yorkshire, really, it's such a top place to take a bike. There are a couple of climbs over the Pennines that totally blew me away last time I was there.
I'm also looking forward to the expression on my Dad's face, when I appear at his front door. I'll knock his socks off. He can then take me to accident and emergency.
I reckon it's going to be a strong weekend for everyone around here - so long as the weather holds.
