Fat Lad Goes North
November 2, 2005 – 4:16 am
Waaay north……. I hate work. Really, really, really, (have I mentioned really?) hate it. Not the people, not the role, and believe it or not, not even those above me. What I actually hate is the predictability and mundanity of it all. I’m definitely a work to live kind of guy. So with a week […]

Fat lad rides the Reservoir Raid
September 21, 2005 – 7:27 am
I’m told that there is an old chinese insult: “May you live in interesting times”. Well in that case last night was quite possibly the most insulting night I’ve ever had. I wont go into the specifics, but it involves the local McDonalds employed, public cider drinking, peasant scum and a member of the Tuesday […]
Fat Lad Rides the Roachy Ramble
September 6, 2005 – 6:16 am
Roachy is a jinx. Not only does he hobble himself with a summer of injuries, but he manages to make me late too. Not quite sure how, but he does. Pretty much every week he’s not been riding, I’ve been either on time (well some times) or just a few minutes late (more than likely). […]

August 31, 2005 – 7:43 am
And feck me I’m suffering today for it……. Sunday 28th August – Reservoir Raid Remix: 11.8 Miles I rode up to the start point to meet Carol, Mick and Andy. It was a glorious morning and I was glad to be out. It was a fairly uneventful ride with good friends and Carol falling off […]
Fat Lad Rides the Abridged Reservoir Remix
August 23, 2005 – 6:16 am
I’d had a shite day. The hearse was being laid to rest with a very poorly gear box that was going to cost four times it’s value to repair. Back to the Peasant Wagon again… I feckin hate public transport.I nursed my automobile back from the garage to home and got ready for the ride. […]
Fat Lad Rides The Chip Chase
August 16, 2005 – 8:11 am
Sunday mornings should be about sleeping in, the morning papers and hangovers. Instead the 6:55am alarm wakes me from inappropriate dreams of Kylie. With fading memories of everyones favourite antipodean pop princess fading I got into Andy’s van and we made our way to the Newmiller Dam starting point. Getting there on time (somebody else […]
Fat Lat Rides the Reservoir Raid Remix
August 7, 2005 – 7:18 am
Well bugger me (actually on second thoughts, errrm don’t) a real life post and everything. So my logs tell me some people still come here and look so I’m sure your going to get the shock of your life when there is actually something to read….. So with Thursday’s ride being just a lot shit, […]
