The cheek of it!

So I'm in JJBs buying my payday toy - a skipping rope for warmups, the proper job with a leather rope and cartridge bearings (that run smoother than my bikes), so you can go so fast that if you didn't have bearings the leather would catch fire and smell of bacon.  Rocky Balboa seal of approval, comes with a voucher that gets you two-for-one on litres of man-sweat and blunt force trauma.

The fine young filly behind the desk indicates some gumshields and suggests that I might like to make my purchase complete by buying one. 

"It's just for warm-ups," I explain.  "I don't box."

"Oh, I know that.  It's just so's you don't knock yer teeth out when you trip over!"

Young people today, no respect!

From behind.

There are some advantages to being at the back of the pack. The view is one.

The guy chasing me on the bike leg at Aberfeldy said much the same thing.

There are worse things than being behind a fine, driving, taut lady arse that gives a little jiggle when she hits a pothole.

Just don't ride the pennyfarthing or there could be upskirt woes!
