Preparation complete

Ok....I'm all set and ready to go for tomorrows ride.

Had a pretty busy day today, I had somewhat of an emergency situation on my bank account, some knobber in Morocco has hacked into my online account so the bank, quite rightly shut down my account. Had to sort that out today which was a bit of a pain in the arse but got there in the end.

Went to the gym this morning and had one hell of a work-out. We did pyramid training today which is where you start on the lowest weight and do 3 reps, then move up weights at 3 reps each until you reach your absolute maximum lift limit, then you work backwards again until you reach the lightest weight. Its a really bizarre feeling went the lightest weight at the end of the set feels the heaviest. Also went into Halfords and bought myself some new SPD cleats for my new mountainbiking boots which will be arriving anyday now, they are really cool, Gortex lined and all that jazz, perfect for walking and cycling which will come in very handy on my challenge ride with the added bonus of dry feet.

Had a few problems with the computer so with the help of my dad, Graham, managed to get it all sorted out and now my computer is running nice and smoothly with no more bloody annoying pop-ups to contend with. Funny how they get naughtier the later at night it gets....lol

Thats pretty much it for today, not very eventfull but a full day never the less. Time for bed I think as up for 05:30......

Night.....zzzzzz
