This is def the secret plan that motivated him to ride so well today…
It dawned on me after unpacking flat pack box #2.
He’s def nicked off to the middle of nowhere to avoid the pain of putting together the clothes rack and the chest of drawers I bought from Temple and Webster.
How very dare he.
Not sure about Willy after 231km in the saddle as I type this, but I DEF need a massage.
Ok so today was nutso.
And still nutso as I type.
I just went to check the whereabouts of Willy after a stop at 231km mark and he’s goneski.
I am guessing he’s decided to continue on because he must have missed the shop closing at 5.00pm.
On the shop note – Dot watcher delirium has set in well and truly.
I was willing him on to get there before closing.
And whilst chest of drawers flat packing it, I started to yell in an Arnie voice, “Get to the Shopper”.
He didn’t make the shopper. Damn.
Oh well. He’s off. I just hope he has plan B, C, D, E, F.
On the wind-trainer this morning…
I don’t know.
But I did say to Willy at 5am, his time this morning, “Shouldn’t you be warming up?”.
So patient, he was. With his response.
“Darling, thank you, but I have 2750km to warm up. I’m sure I’ll be OK.”
And then of course the joke then became how silly he was not to have packed a wind trainer to warm up.
I have NFI. Dunno.
Cutting a funny story short…
I think ole Willy gave his toothbrush a bit of a bowl cut.
Taking note of the master bike packers, he cut his toothbrush in half.
More so as a joke for weight reduction in the bike pack.
But today while cleaning the pegs he almost swallowed it like a lolly.
Funny.
Some piccies below. Was hoping for more including countryside shots but clearly he’s on a mission.
Until day 2.
Goooooo Willlllly.
EDIT: 6.25AM Sunday Day 2 – Text from Willy overnight. Something wrong with bike seat pole clamp. Bummer! Just checked dot and can’t see movement. Hopefully he packed the sticky tape.
AND OHHH ANOTHER EDIT: More piccies through overnight. Awesome.
Amazing Day 1 ride… incredible!!!
