...I don't have a team, or regular female riders, though of course the lads I live with are great pep-talkers and supporters. Great to have this support on the line, though.
And I'll forgive you the chocolate thing (cause I am actually finding I don't crave it as much and can't eat as much as I could pre-cycling) -besides, that birthday cake sounds damn delish.
Well done you. Your race reports are always so alive and fun to read
