Last day of #raphafestive500 last week. Me drafting behind @mark_stoneham whilst he was stretching not kevetching ..

It’s not all about the bike.. Social Media..

Everyone checking the STRAVA UPDATE..

Drastic measure were required this morning with 2 days to go in the #RaphaFestive500. So we opted for less elevation & more distance (now why didn’t we think that before!).

With one puncture & the bunch decided to not wait at the pit-stop (WTF), Mark (centre) & I decided to hold the front wheel for the last 35km to try & catch up with the bunch as there were only 4 of us.

We never caught them, but we did have good coffee & pastries at the cafe!
