Stage 3 It's sofa king Jane!


Stage 3 It's sofa king Jane!

Sunday Riders - 4.50



Today Jane was feeling better and ripped my legs off for the first hour and a half. At the bottom of the first climb a girl from another mixed team gave Jane the 'Lance glance' and the pain began.

Then she saw a sofa in the middle of nowhere, which intruiged her. So we stopped for a look and four mixed teams passed us including the girl who started it :-) Jane can be fickle:)

Later in Karpacz we met a very excited Nicky who insisted we all ride the kolorowa, a bob sleigh in a metal run on the side of the mountain! The sleigh is towed up the mountain by a chair lift, which then lets you go down a twisted, bermed metal half tube. Fantastic:-)

It was a very nice sofa, brand new from the feel of it and with a view to die for - well at least stop a minute or two for.
I can't believe NO-ONE else saw it, at all, not even a glimpse. Everyone we told thought we'd either been taking 'substances' or had heat stroke. Even I began to think i'd imagined it! Thank goodness we had the camera:-)

She did imagine it, I saw no sofa.
