		<description><![CDATA[Preparation:  Roadside repair course and did some route planning
Training:…ermmmmm, bit lacking
Miles: 17
Punctures: 1!
It’s the weekend before LEJOG, and again the sun is shining.  Em is away for the weekend, but I thought I should try and get a few miles in anyway.  
Friday:
I’d booked a roadside repair course at Bikes4All, conscious that [...]]]></description>

Planning hours: 2-3
Cups of coffee:  lots!
It was a wet Saturday, so thought I’d make a start on the LEJOG planning. I settled down with a cup of coffee and booted up the laptop to search for a few blogs of previous trips, noting down ones with similar daily [...]]]></description>

Feeling a little jaded after my recent fleeting visit to Hong Kong for my step brothers wedding and returning straight back to work, I decided not to head off to The [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Freshly back from a fantastic ski trip, Em and I decided to go for a bike ride the day after our return, while still feeling fit from skiing.  So, after a well-deserved lie in (as we’d been up and on the slopes by 9.30 every day the previous week) we headed out to Staunton [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Well its our first ride out of the New Year. The weather is cold but blue skies and being the serious cyclists that we are, nothing is going to put us off.
