Expedition
The short version is: I didn't make it.
The long version is: I didn't make it due to these defining factors:
- The chain on my bike having an inability to stay on (might need a tune-up as it's first usage it's had this year)
- The legs on my person having an inability to pedal (definitely need to cycle more; appalling stamina levels)
- The sudden realisation that 12 miles actually means a 24 mile round-trip (again, need cycle training)
- A domestic situation I'd rather keep to myself
- The fact that no-one else was intending on going so I was only letting myself down.
At the point where I turned round I thought I might get home and drive there, but that would be contrary to the nature of the sport, so alas another failed hash attempt by me. I'll get there eventually.
NB: I think the constant bike failure might gain me the Blinded_by_Science achievement in some contrived fashion, but frankly I think my general performance was so pathetic I don't deserve even that.
There's always next time though, eh? --mulebeatsdrums
