Well My Bags Are Packed and I'm Ready To Leave

Squeezed in At Last

All  Ready to Go

On Saturday I had my last training cycle, thank goodness. Just a gentle 21 miles with my sister Isla and Murray. The sun was actually shining and I thoroughly enjoyed it. I managed to source the part for the bike headset so the bike is running very smoothly. What a relief. Today, Sunday, we boxed the bike for the flight to San Diego and had a bit of a struggle.  British Airways demand that the front wheel and pedals are removed, the handlebars turned and tyres deflated.  We padded the bike frame out with bubble wrap, cardboard and tubing then tried to squeeze the bike into box. Some part was always sticking up or out but eventually we got there and were still speaking. It will be my difficult job in San Diego to  remove and assemble it. My two medium bags are packed, everything  pushed and pummelled into place
