Training objective: 45 minutes easy recovery ride. Coach sends me a message this morning, "enjoy the long ride tomorrow now, and don't kill yourself hey. Its long days." Pffft, I say! What's 300 km's man? :) So nearly got wiped out by a speeding scooter early today - the driver decided he was going to try to cut between me and another cyclist as he shot out of a parking lot on the right, but then had to stop for traffic. Good thing it was a slow ride - I managed to hit the brakes and came to a stop with my front wheel hitting the body of the scooter. Fortunately, no damage. Not 2 minutes later, I'm turning where cars have to yield and a mini-van goes straight through - another close call. Sheesh, man. Got caught in a few rain showers, so gave the bike a bit of a hose down at the end. She's all clean, lubed up and ready to go for tomorrow's BRM 300 - and so am I! :)
