In short it all gets down to friendship and great teamwork let me give you a days example
H usually signals the new day by using his rear end trumpet at which point I open the window and blinds a) for obvious public health issues and b) to check out what the likely time of the morning is !
Breakfast is where we excel, i grab 2 OJ/`s while H puts together two bowls of cereal usually with about 18 gallons of milk - we both then make a habit of wandering aimlessly around the restaurant trying to find the utensils and other edible food !
Back in the room we pack and upon hearing the 5 minute warning signal, another blast from H`s rear end trumpet, we assemble to load our bikes and generally kick each others tyres to ensure everything is in good working order !
On the road H is let loose only where rivers and concrete walls prevent him from making a wrong. What he lacks in directional awareness though he more than makes up in his technical ability ... `not another f$%king puncture Litchfield ! ... And his hotel bartering skills e.g. tonight we are on the top floor of a hotel with no lift !
On the road we both cycle closely together a lesson learn in the UK. While riding i will usually inform H of local history or point out the scenery while H regales me in information about apples, cars, bikes or any bloody documentary he has ever seen !.
Once booked in to our hotel we both take turns in turning the well presented room into a disheveled laundry !
Despite rumours to the contrary our friendship is just that and any incursions into each others bed at night time are purely accidental, a result of sleep walking or me trying to smother H when he won't turn the damned light out!
Good friends !
