YPR #65 And then there were five…

After going to all that trouble to pick up my road bike from work last night, I realised as I was standing in my ~~laundry~~ bike room this morning that I forgot to grab my road shoes. So I made the quick decision to ride down to the Boulevard on my broken Yeti.

Yay for having several bikes. Boo for not having several pairs of shoes with the right cleats ready to go.

And… Gump of the Week (GoW) goes to…. you guessed it, HPG again for –
forgetting his road shoes when we specifically went in to work to pick up his road bike and then rocking up to a road ride on a MTB, in baggies and a t-shirt.

Points for at least showing up.
Double points to Al for showing up AND being the first one there.

Weather/injury/laziness/sleep-deprivation permitting… I should be OK for this Fri.
