2012 roundup


2012 Summary

2012 was a sporadic year, on and off road, generally my mate Tim would ask me if i want to do a certain ride, i would then panic and get loads of miles in before it, i had a big winter, snowboarding which hampered some progress early in on the year, then the rain came of course.
later on in the year i had some thoughts on making my own bike, probably a 29er single speed getting caught up in the media hype on 29er's then i got audaxing a lot more and thought maybe i should build myself a more suitable road bike but one with disc brakes cos rim brakes suck in bad whether on the roads IMHO
additionally it occurred to me that i might have a good start to a Randonneur Around the Year badge, to do this it is necessary to complete a 200K audax every month for 12 consecutive months, so I'll have a go at that i thought, a good start to a big 2013.
Stupidly this then moved to thoughts of a once every 4 years event called "LondonEdinburghLondon" which is 1400K audax to be completed in approximately 120 hours, so I'm gonna have a go at that too
