Mo! tivation
Last weekend, I went down to Dorset to stop over with good friend and Ernest Press author Colin Dennis. Colin's Dorset Mountain Bike Guide was a pleasure to work on and and I'm not suprised that it sells like hot cakes www.ernest-press.co.uk.
So Colin has added many feathers to his bow since our first meeting; both publisihing projects that he has devoted an amazing amount of energy and time to and The Shaftesbury Cycle Revival www.shaftesburycyclerevival.co.uk. Why not come along. The cobbles are incredible and the short, sharp ups and downs will be a challenge that scares the bejeezuz out of me. There will be beer and partying afterwards. Make it a date. 12th June. For me, every visit to stay with Colin is a pleasure. His enthusiasm and determination is always a motivation. Thanks Colin!
When I left Colin's, I went onto stay with fellow KMP fan, Rob Lee and his girlfriend Jen Harrison. Ernest Press are delighted to be the publisher for Rob's excellent and unique biographical work. You'll hear more about that soon.
And then today. Well. Today, I faced a dementor. Riding my bike makes me happy, yet brings painful things to the fore. I have a very visual mind and as much as I love the old bugger, seeing his face is pretty upsetting. So today, I rode hard, winked, then rode harder and felt a bit ill so rode harder again. Recieving an absolute battering from Colin has done a lot of good. Thanks mate!
