Oops a rather nice wine - 23:40
Just as a reminder, I really liked the Stoneleigh 2005 Sauvignon Blanc (from
Marlborough in NZ). Of course upon getting sick of a bottle of wine rattling
around in the fridge, I should not simply assume it was from the dinner party
a few weeks ago (after which there were a few half full bottles of wine to
polish off over time). This was a half full bottle belonging to one of my
housemates, fortunately I was able to find a replacement while out shopping
tonight.
Problems with long sleeve shells - 18:57
So around an hour ago I got back to work after a ride out to Woden to buy some
hardware and stuff for setting up tow lines off the back of my bike (to tow
team mates in the Geo
Half next weekend) and a new pair of trail running shoes I needed (Asics
Trabuco).
Because the weather yesterday and this morning was wet (constant soaking rain) I had a light weight waterproof shell jacket, a thermal and a cycle jersey to wear. Normally in this temperature I would wear arm warmers and a shell vest instead, however with rain possible I decided on long sleeves. I probably should have stuck with what I prefer, I was again reminded why I do not like wearing long sleeve shells, you heat up and sweat far more than is sensible, my jersey and thermal are now soaked (admittedly if I had ridden at a sedate pace this would not have happened, however I was in a rush so it did).
I fortunately have some dryer clothing to wear for the short ride home, to which I should head soon as I need to replace a spoke in the back wheel on the hardtail, set up the towing system, do grocery shopping and some other stuff (see I can be boring and mundane in a diary as well as anyone).
