Typical, yesterday was perfect for biking, today it's overcast and looks like it's going to rain. Hamsterley Forest is about 40 minutes away and me and Jamie are off on a quick 12 miler round the forest. Should take about 2 to 3 hours and I'm going to be riding with the same pack that I will be carrying on the Polaris (Test Everything Several Times In Training).
Packed the rucksack yesterday and got everything in no problem. The thing is about 20lbs and that's with 2.5 litres of water in the camelback. I've invested in a lightweight pillow for this event because the last couple of times that has been the one thing that I've really thought I should have. I'm going to have to strap it under the back of the saddle (in a plastic bag) and see how it goes.
Anyway, picking Jamie up at 11:00, see you later.
