Did another 10-12 miles just now, my first ride in the rain. I know the distance is tiny but we have to start somewhere. I also purchased a road pump that clips onto the bike as i realised that i have inner tubes etc but no way to blow the tyre up if i get a puncture in Stockport or where ever. I changed my set up today and dropped my handlebars down a bit, which i found uncomfortable. I changed them back a bit and moved my seat forward to take some strain of my arms, i will have to tinker over time to get it perfect for me. I dont know if anyone watched the sport relief bike ride, it looked quite hard, i am excited and a little bit scared. Will not be able to ride tomorrow or monday i think (except in and out of Uni) and i may ride to Old Trafford tomorrow if the weather is nice as i am going to watch Utd vs scouse. Wednesday will be a good day as it is my last deadline before Easter so i can play a bit more poker after that but i still have a crazy amount to do.

Poker wise, i played again last night, a short session of 700 hands i think and ended about .75 BI up. was up 2 at one point but a risky turn bluff where i c/r a gutter didnt work- the card was wrong to do it with as it paired the board and thus overs where less worried but i defo think vs the specific player it was ok. Not needed but ok. Missed a few draws etc but had another B/E red line session, although i was up nearly a BI after 500 hands, so disappointing to not maintain that. Have played only 6.5k hands for the month and up ~8 BI so its ok, i should just hit the 7.5k VPP's i think, probably have to have a lockdown next Wednesday night and Thursday. Friday i think i am going to Liverpool so that fucks up Saturday as well.

OK, off to the library again, then back to watch England beat France, i reckon there is good value to be had in us beating the frogs, they love bottling it on the big occasion.
