My ever so kind brother has reminded me of some extra muppetry that went unreported in my last post regarding the Warwickshire Fun Triathlon. To keep good order I will report this to you now....
In order to 'save weight' on my bike I decided to take my bell and a few other bits and bobs off and leave them at home. As we arrived at the Holiday Inn and the bike came off the car Flissy decided to ask where the bell had gone. "Isn't it part of the Highway Code?" She asked, "oh never mind, I'm sure it will be fine."
Alarms of course began to ring and I went straight out and bought a new bell. Couldn't find one that would fit on the bars properly but it seemed to stay on ok without being screwed on. The Gonzo moment with the goggles followed later in the evening (see last post) and the bell was forgotten.
Up nice and early my brother and I set off with the family and his girlfriend to the event. The bikes went onto our cars and we drove into Stratford. As we succeeded in parking in the fraught car park at the sports centre we took them back off again.
"Where is your bell?" Said Flissy.
