After 14 weeks lazing about on his back feeling sorry for himself and getting fat Mao Tse` finally got back on his wheels for the first time today.
Following positive advice regards light exercise from his large retinue of personal Tesco Value Accident Insurance physicians (based in Crete, The UK, Florida and everywhere else he comes off his bike), but against the advice of Mrs Suzie `Mao` Edwards a gentle spin along the flat of The Ginst was undertaken today in bright October sunshine.
Todays event was under some initial doubt after an earlier aborted walk along the beach at Pendine with Mrs Mao. After only 100m of the walk `The Back` was moaning and not up for the challenge and Mrs Mao took a dim view of the lack of effort Chairman Tung was putting in and declared "if you can't do 100m with me along the beach, your not going cycling with Pork Pie"....However, after some delicate Kofi Annan style negotiations and an hour's guitar and singing practice at Penllew which included some new material for the upcoming gig supporting London folk supergroup `Yasgur's Farm` at the New Three Mariners (30th Oct) and PAM FEST 09 (31st Oct) at the Crows Nest, Morfa Bay (http://www.morfabay.com/), Mrs Mao relented and the VW was fired up for the short trip to The Ginst. Light, turning over of the cogs was the order of the day and after a gentle 7 miles the chairman went home looking happy.
While Mao as can be seen in some of the photos didn`t make too much of an effort in the satorial stakes (no change there then), Pork Pie can be seen exhibiting the new high quality merino wool Two Fat Cyclist's jersey kindly supplied by Shutt VR.We have a limited number of these highly sought after100% merino wool jerseys for sale in medium, large, XL and XXL sizes with profits going towards our chosen charity Diabetes UK please check the TFC website for details http://www.thetwofatcyclists.co.uk/
