Saturdays for many are a day to get jobs done at home, or for a lucky few a chance to stop altogether and recover from a week at work. For us Bicycle Doctors, Saturdays usually mean a day in the shop but on the occassions one of us is off, the day is put to good use.
Robbie decided against the domestic duties and postponed stopping altogether on Saturday as he rode a 300km Audax as part of qualifying for the mammoth task of riding the Paris-Brest-Paris 1200km event.
On a cold, but dry day, Robbie took in the sights of the Cotswolds and the Forest of Dean (with 4500m of climbing thrown in for good measure) and returned home happy but a little tired!
The 2011 PBP will be Robbie’s 4th one, having completed the three previous editions (that occur only once every 4 years!)
You can keep track of his progress on our blog, as he still has rides of 400km and 600km to complete! Of course that’s nothing for Robbie…
