Welcome to Fat Lad monthly, the periodical for the more amply cushioned derriere customer.
Running Goal – To run at least once a week
Wow, I really am hanging onto this one by the skin of my teeth. One run a week or two at best has let my form go horribly. Every run I seem to be getting worse. Probably time to return to some sort of structure me thinks…
Riding – To Ride 2000 MTB Miles in the Year
This is the part where I usually beat myself up in an orgy of near Catholic levels of guilt for not pedaling enough. Not this month though 🙂
Miles Needed in June: 209.5
Miles Actually Pedalled in June: 221.3
Miles Now Required Per Month: 207.54
As the great bard used to say: “Get in my son! Now pass me the minty arse lard…”
Weight
Still 13 stone dead (182 pounds to those not used to old money) I can live with that. For now.
Twitter Rides

So callled because the workshop has been so busy the last few weeks I’ve been swinging spanners on the plastic bike with one hand whist shoveling pies into my face with the other during my butty breaks.
Comes in at a good weight and rides like a dream. Now all we need to do, in continuing a fine Fat Lad tradition, is find a name for the new plastic mistress….
