    <br />
    woot woooo hooroo i'll be on my 15th beer by the time you come in at taupo it'll be gold!<br />
    <br />
    knees suck i've got no cartilage in mine, being trying to 'manage' it, was going alright. then made the mistake of playing some rugby.  sure enough picked up a sweet injury, 95% tear of the pec muscle where it attaches to the bicep.. so surgery blah blah blah and a summer of no golf and swimming.  farking great.  <br />
    <br />
    Knee feels ok tho, but no point running as the half ironman is out so that's one good thing!<br />
    <br />
    So just on teh bike...  and getting a new toy cause i wrote one off in a crash last week.<br />
    <br />
    and one of my trainers is giving me some new diet pills to trial...  <img src='http://www.daimenhutchison.com/invision/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':lol:' />

                              Shit that's an impressive time. I rode around with the missus this time and it took 6hr 12. Too long sitting on a bike. Hope to go under 5 hr next year. <br />
                              <br />
                              How much fluid do you take?
