I'm likely in for Friday, and depending on the daughter situation perhaps Saturday and Sunday too (assuming I get enough rest ).
yeah, im kinda used to trying to eliminate any deadspots in my rotation, i mean, the toeclips are kinda useless but the straps on them helped a lot in trying to get things going circular most of the time.

friday looks really nice, and only 10km/h winds, so i got that penciled in.. it will be a shake down for my new shoes.

daughter takes all, that would be the only respectable thing to do, so no worries.
