PGT Day 5 - Here, There and .... Blimey, 80km!

Wow! Long day. 13 hours in lycra. Still REALLY enjoyed the riding though, but it's late (for me) so bullet point summary of Day 5 of The People's Grand Tour II 2012;

• W H Smith, Wolverhampton to collect Lego.
• Fred's at 9am to collect Garmin quarter turn mount for MTB (and bearing Cost Flat Whites).
• Work via Trysull and 3 cycling buddies en route. 
• One hourish lunchtime loop taking in Pattingham (see pic). 

• 75 minutes or so spinning around lanes with Finn, loving the chatting time with my son and over-using our phrase of the day "how green is that green". The late afternoon sunshine really brought out a magnificent, deep verdancy in the fields that was truly stunning.
• Stop to pick up Finn's phone which fell off his bike whilst riding and completely came apart. Strava didn't miss a beat recording his ride although it is in now two parts. Phone still working (HTC Desire) - thanks to all the motorists who moved to avoid it.
• Fast ride to Trysull for Curriculum Committee meeting at the school.
• Fast ride home as the light faded.
• Shower
