The Nut Cracker






Had great fun yesterday filming a couple of scenes for the video...that's it now all done and dusted and it will be on You Tube tonight. I haven't been riding for a few days because of my sore knee but on the shoot last night whilst filming the last footage for the video I managed to cycle fifteen miles on the rollers. I'm not taking my bike into the Bike Factory until Monday now. It was going in tomorrow but I have a busy day at work so I won't have the time. I need some new cleates, which means I have to change my bike peddles and shoes. No bad timing with just over a week to go....trust me it's only the beginning. As long as Gusher doesn't let me down I will be OK.
I've shown the video to a few people at work and they seemed to like it, I hope you do. Remember to donate....every penny counts...I'm going on again, I'm sorry.
It's only a week away until I go...need a wee....sorry it makes me do that every time I think about it. I can't believe how fast it has come round. It only seemed like yesterday since I thought of the idea....do you think people would notice if I just went to Blackpool for the summer....only joking of course, I'm really excited. I'm more worried about this BBQ at the weekend. It's going to rain, apparently. It was supposed to be raining today but it's been great. I hope the weather forecasters are wrong for the weekend....Don't worry I've got a plan B....we'll all get piss wet through and have a wet tee-shirt competition, should be fun. No seriously I'm having a buffet as well as the normal BBQ stuff. I can't believe I'm discussing my catering arrangements. Honestly it will get more exciting that this.
I've received my new helmet today, it's fantastic. I was speaking to Jo, my colleague and the singer in the video, who was my first groupie. I showed her my new helmet and said that I didn't know how anyone could be so excited over a piece of plastic....she begged to differ, then laughed...I didn't even know she was a cyclist!
I've uploaded some pictures from the last of the filming. Cheers guys you were fantastic as usual and we had a scream....literally I fell off the rollers and squashed my 'riding tackle' against the crossbar of my bike. You wouldn't understand girls but it took a couple of seconds before the sickly feeling slowly rose from the pit of my stomach...and lower. It drove the tears from my eyes and I had the up most respect for anything within a foot of my nether regions for the next half hour. I don't suppose it helped that my Lycra pants had herded my testis into a coral like area making it easier to 'round them up' so to speak. Poor little mites they were rolling round like a pair of Chinese calmimg balls in the hands of a stressed out city banker.
