# miles last week: 55
# miles so far this week: 8 (but its only Tuesday, and yesterday was a bank holiday)
Darmstadt fund: £2.50
Well, hokey dokey, what's been happening? Well, last Monday I chose to ride from home to the bus station in Nottingham. Only 6 miles. However, if I was to say cats and dogs, it would be a great understatement about the weather. Some of the main road was partially flooded, and it looked like it was going to rain like that for another 39 days and nights. My biggest worry was that Noah wasn't going to let me on unless my unicycle had its wheels two by two! Anyway, I got to the bus station and rung out my socks, as I'd bought clean ones with me. However, everything else for the week that was in my backpack got wet, and I had to sit for the 3 hour coach ride to Nottingham in soaking padded cycling shorts. Not plesant :-(
Overall last week was fairly quiet, and I only clocked up 55 miles. Riding home last Wednesday, and back in Thursday it was heavy rain again. Do I really do this for fun?
Well, today I got the email about the 6th international unicycle hockey tournament in Darmstadt(Germany). Although I'm not a bad unicyclist, I'm not a great hockey player. But it will be so much fun out there. The guys that went last year spent about £180. It's 12 weeks away, so as long as I can save at least £15 per week by riding instead of taking public transport, then I can justify going. I've got £2.50 so far :-)
