I managed a 35 mile loop and only had 3 cars overtake me. I didnt go out at the time of the match on purpose but the roads were dead! Inverness was like a sunday morning at 9am.

cant wait for the next world cup.

Oh I wish I had been...! I've done it before and you're right - it is great. Well done for doing it though - I'm jealous!

no but i've missed the football as i've just got back from my first ever trip to afan-such a good days riding, very tired but chuffed to have squeezed in all of the wall,whites level and the last bit of skyline, can't believe i've left it so long before going to wales, can't wait to go back. Next road trip is exmoor explorer which will hopefully be good too as that will be my first time there as well.

I was out during the first 25 minutes or so was pretty quiet. Wish I'd stayed out after watching the rest!! 😉

All afternoon. It was ace. And I was riding the comfort bike so no crashes. Unlike the previous two days when the HT beat the cr@p out of me.

I was watching the tour highlights and then watched 'T in the park: Prodigy'. It would have been better if they'd actually shown some Prodigy but I suppose they managed to slap some in right at the end of the program.

ditto samuri. How dispappointing was that. Been waiting since yesterday for the whole 2 songs from the prodigy. Hopefully there'll be more of the excellent bbc site.Mind you The Prodigy always rock, so two so still good.According to The Prodigys site it was due to Eninem?? , who effected the sheduling of the Prodigy and thus a shorter viewing.Keith was going mad!

eminem had shoes on that he had to keep clean. it wasnt that he just didnt want to get muddy feet or walk 40ft to the stage..hence the bags over his feet.there was more to it than that.

There was a match on? Was it important? 🙂

I spent the weekend rebuilding my 2004 Enduro and took it out for it's inaugural post rebuild ride late on Sunday afternoon.

It was much, much better then I remembered it, which is more than I can say about any football match I've ever seen.
