A bit of an unexpected session. Tomorrow is the off-road duathlon on black mountain - i was just going to do the two runs but craig has flu so I've borrowed his bike and will do the whole thing. Went out this afternoon to do a practise loop to get used to the bike and see what the course is like. Its all on wide fire trails so plenty of room for avoiding stuff. the only time i've ridden off-road before was with jane p years ago when i scared myself going downhill fast. Enjoyed it a lot more today and stayed on the bike. Have opted for toeclips rather than cleats - should save a couple of minutes in transition and have a bit more chance of getting my feet out if I need to. Started to rain quite a lot while I was out so need to lube the bike and wash everything.
