Lance v Fanylion
My good buddy Lance has just announced he's riding the Cape Argus in South Africa this year. I've been on at him for a while to take on a mighty Fany (Cheryl Crowe aside). Does that make me the first Fany to take him on in a race?? Bring it on Armstrong you big girl's blouse you!

Bear and I negotiated the treacherous frozen roads of Sussex for 87 chilly but sunsoaked miles on Saturday. Then we ate meat and drank beer. RADICAL!!!!

The trails and bridleways were 6ft deep in snow! A tough 3.5 hrs to drag our bodies and bikes around in snowdrifts and cover a measly 14miles. Was worth it to see Bear do a huffing puffing dance with a frozen infected toenail though.

Snowboarding.......
is my current fitness building choice, go down, walk back up, go down, walk back up, fall down, get up, carry on, walk back up. Snow's brilliant.

5.30am and -6 Degrees
Yeah thats right, I might be the most southerly faction of Fanylion. But Im the hardest of the southern softies! My first ride of the year was 2hrs 30mins before work on Wed morning. And I only came off twice. My G/f brought me off the first time before I left and then I fell off 3/4 of the way round. Not a bad start to 2010. Ahem

I agree
New homepage pic is a must, 12 months is way too long looking at Bergeracs ugly mug. May I propose a pic from every official Fanylion ride is used each month.......
