Wouldn’t be much of a Knighthood Quest if you felt like toodling ‘round the park now, would it?
Also, while I did plan to spend a few moments sharing the joy of suffering with you today on Zwift, some things have come up in ye ol’ pain cave that are making that more and more unlikely (insert Sad Face)
You can do this! Every minute brings you closer to the gate!
I’m still discussing with a screaming tendon when and how long to join you in Z.
Keep strong! You are doing great!
Keep the pedals turning my friend and future Knight @wmalexmann ! The Four Horsemen (of the Apocalypse) was a good and foreboding choice for your Zwift follow along route. You can do this!
Your Saturday morning riding partners are cheering you on soon to be Sir Alex.
When the going gets tough add this to your playlist: Survivor-Burning Heart
IF I can figure out how to join you (and Zwift quits being a nuisance today), I will. If not, I am there in spirit!
Ouch. Starting 5
Suffer! Suffer!

Only 5 more to go. The omnium starts now. Eek!
The Omnium! One of my favorites.
Sad I’ve missed out on the first 5, but the 5 remaining will be the sufferingest of them all.


Hope you are hanging tough! I am on my 5th martini so I know how you feel…

Pass around another glass of real pagne.
Sadly could not join to cheer you up for technical reasons (no teleport possible).
But you don’t need that anyway. You got this! Pain is temporary, the honor is forever! To the castle!!!
Awesome! Glad to see he’s got good company!
I’m looking but don’t see him anywhere round here yet? Anyone?

Allez allez, Alex! The finish line should be within sight by now!
*if you can see anything through the holy water, or lift your head from the stem.
For the rest of us, who r just waiting around for Poky McPokypants to arrive, having had to log in to Zwift to see what was what, I was offered the hilarious SpinBack where they shower you with compliments and kudos about all your glorious accomplishments in the cartoon world. (Fwiw, I actually very much enjoy Zwift, but just can’t justify the sub cost given my definitive lack of use).
Here’s a snapshot of my 2025 ![]()
