There was a buzz about Ironmonger last night as Manchester United faced Chelsea in Moscow for the Champions League Final. It was the first time two English teams have faced off for the Champions league title. It was definitely the easiest biking night I've had so far as the game was not only entertaining and kept my attention off the workout but also got my adrenaline (and my fists) pumping several times throughout the match.
As Christiano Ronaldo netted the first goal at the 26 minute mark, I through my fist into the air, looking around shortly afterwards to make sure I was in good company…and I was! The staff at ironmonger were also celebrating as Man U. took the first lead of the night. Chelsea’s go to guy, Lampard, responded just before half time with a goal off a rebound.
The game wasn’t decided until the 14th shot of the shootout when goalkeeper Van der Sar rejected one from Chelsea’s Anelka

Anyway, it kept me entertained for about two hours and helped me crank out 63 Km last night on the bike. Combine that with the 40 Km I rode this morning and I’m within striking distance of making my first border crossing into Arizona this evening! Follow this link to see my latest progress:
