Uusually there's heaps on a Sat afternoon. What a bunch of nancies. Or maybe all the cyclists out this way are saving themselves for the BunchRide/Leyland Bros ride tomorrow (we have gotta get a better name).

My theory is run hard on Saturday, do no stretching on Saturday night, and count on the Sunday ride to ease the tightness in the hamstrings before the climb out of Warrandyte. LEGAL DISCLAIMER: The author of this advice can't run and can't ride, make a booking with the masseur or physio before followign this advice.

Headed off to the Royal National Park for an abseil/walk (only ride weekdays
) there was precious little riders along the Princess Hwy and RNP road too, usually crawling with them. The majority of who I saw actually looked like Audax riders so I'm guessing most of their ride will be through the rain. They will definately enjoy a nice hot bath when they get home today/tomorrow/monday.......

I'll have to read more of Tam's posts about running and riding at the same time.. It can't be done. Either your running shoes don't clip into the bike pedals or your bike shoes make running impossible. Karl aka Stomper |

"running and THEN riding within a short space of time". What if I wore one runner and one SPD shoe? ;-) hippy |

@news-server.bigpond.net.au: What if I wore one runner and one SPD shoe? ;-) Obvious innit? As one side would be better suited to the current activity than the other, you would run in circles in one direction and ride in circles in the other direction. :-) Graeme |

Actually I really love running as soon as I'm off the bike. The first km hurts like you wouldn't believe, and I feel really unco, but after that it loosens up any tightness from the ride. And my bum wakes up, that's a bonus. T |
