Rushcutters 800s

After a solid afternoon yesterday in the  Captain Cook followed by an evening watching the Twenty 20 cricket at the SCG, then with a busy mornings work the last thing i needed this morning was a drug crazed loony in Redfern taking me out on the bike on a blind corner. The result.... flat out on the street,with a busted finger, sore elbow,knee, levers not working, handlebars bent, and  a wheel that is now buckled:(
What a clown this nutter was, flying at a million miles an hour, with no helmet on, on a bike 23 sizes to small for him................what do you do though? then to really rub salt into the wound i had a homeless guy ask me if i was OK and offered me a 'shifter'?????? what was i supposed to do with it, put my finger back in place?

Anyway it was a sore and sorry (not to mention not in the mood) Timmy that made it over to Rushcutters for the changed set of 8 x 800s. good crew as well on a peach of a day. Well seeing as i made it over there i thought i may as well put the effort in. Settled behind the front guys and come through the first rep in 2.38 (realising it was long at 834 metres) moved the marker back then  a little and worked hard holding the pace working with Macca McClarnon on each.
reps went;
2.38, 2.33, 2.33, 2.34, 2.35, 2.35
As you can see only did 6 instead of the 8 - but i was really sore in truth and didn't want to push it, despite running relatively well.
made the long journey home via the bike that will now have to put in for a bit of work.

One thing that did bring a smile to me today was reading Kansers and Enda local paper back in Ireland and how they promote good holidays...check this out:)

Talking of Enda, he has not been spotted for the past two weeks, but the 'Trash' has the first photo's of him in his latest job.
All will be published tomorrow.

cheers
A broken and bruised Timmy:(
