Undertraining vs. Interesting Television

My my my... I think none of us are training enough, apart from maybe Ollie, who commutes on the bike from Richmond to Canary Wharf every day and back! He´s certainly lost weight and his thighs are looking rather stronger every time I see him. And if truth be told, it really is very difficult to get everyone together for group training rides. We all have very busy work schedules and most of us have kids and wives/girlfriends, who naturally also need time and attention. In a way it reminds me of playing in a band! I vividly remember how difficult it was get us all at the same place at the same time. And it also did not matter whether you lived close to each other or not! The big difference though is the lack of 'creative incongruence', of course the biggest stumbling block when trying to create songs that worked...
Nevertheless, as we are making a documentary of the 2010 1000Mile Challenge focusing on the human drama of undertaking such a challenge, I comfort myself with the thought that at least if we are not trained enough, it will make the television more interesting!
