Not working quite as planned & just what the hell is roadacne!

So, the broadband at work is fuc*ed (what a great idea that thin client remote server setup was!) which led to exiting the orifice early today, decided therefore to head out on the bike for a few relaxing miles & begin the hunt for some roadacne.

Now I figure I should also qualify just what roadacne is, as it seems Ive invented a new phrase that google hasn't indexed yet! So, given time & enough keyword manipulation for the bots this little corner of the internet will become its home. Roadacne is quite simply any infraction into the usual grippy, semi smooth surface we cyclists should expect to pedal on. Or explained in another way, Roadacne is something you have to ride around rather than over for fear of loosening your fillings/damaging your plums (plumettes)/taking a dive & getting road on your face etc...

Now I know this stuff exists as I remember clearly the large amount times I have nearly been ejected from the saddle but every bump I felt seemed not quite as bad today, although the leaf mush on tarmac & the mixture of gravel & mud experienced on route 41 earlier seemed to qualify for a while but then I found the floating sensation this gives with non knobbly tyres quite fun! concentration on something that actually matters is very theraputic. Well it works for me anyway.

This view does seem to be flying in the face of my blog title but bllx to it - its Christmas!
