Lovely write-ups of Fred W, and the pics from the Elan Valley are awesome - I love that place.
Fri night joined the tri club chaingang. Watched the fast boys ride away as I was clocking 28mph so formed a groupetto with a few others and we did a steadier effort that still had me in bits by the 4th of 6 x 3 mile laps.
Had to ask 2 clubmates to wait whilst I dashed into a pub to avoid a "Paula" moment on the ride back.
Great fun, I'd forgotten what proper hard efforts were like.
