Not been on a group ride since the summer as I've not been able to take 4 hours out due to the missus working weekends. :(

Gets better when your kids get older, they can look after them self.... but a bigger drain on your ££££££

Working life stops me all week, working away or in londonian, so weekends is my only release... wifey and daughter are well used to this now and adapt to it :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

I just about managed to get the reindeer lights up on the hedge when we got back (4:30) as I had promised to do so just dodged that bullet ;)

Pain felt from all angles. Riding in the week is right out as I don't usually get home till 20:00. My weekends are usually tied up as the g/f likes to organise 12 months in advance, or I have no car as the lady is working. I'm sure I never had this problem when I was single and living in my own place with my own motor...... :wtf: Then the g/f starts booking up my holiday as well!!! So, I have told her, 10 days next year are mine, she can keep her grubby little organising fingers off! Although we have a holiday in Vancouver next year for just over two weeks so I think I might disappear for two days, leave her with my parents while I bugger off up Whistler :wave:
