strange, I know. but fab ride. really good. Really enjoyed myself and pushed it a bit. Really good day, brilliant weather. Fabulous. 🙂 I Love riding bikes!
Same here. Following some local bridleways, putting together a local loop. Bit of cheeky stuff to cobble it all together. Lucky I took one of my P7’s as darkness descended a few miles from home. Gorgeous sunset. One to remember.
I did too. Through the centre of That London’s Famous London to South Ken, chilli con carne and chips (with salad) at Floris Cafe, then to the V+A to see the Postmodernism exhibition. Quite good actually. Only problem was, I had terrible wind (not caused by the chilli, that just pressurised the existing turbluence thus exacerbating the problem). Had to do a fair bit of surreptitious ‘crop-dusting’ which was 90% successful. Tried to chat up a nice young lady with a lovely bottom but din’t realise she was with her boyf (yeah but she knows she’d be better off with me really tell the truth). I crop-dusted him so they’ve probbly split up by now. Ah well she had her chance.
Check out this really cool teapot by Richard Notkin; shaped like two cooling towers!
Getting out on a bike and seeing stuff is all good, whether it’s art exhibitions in That London, or Welsh mountains in That Wales. All great stimulating experiences, and riding yer bike. Can’t go wrong with that I reckon.
One of my favourite things ever in the V+A is also one of the smallest things in there:
I just love that. It’s a Japanese ‘Netsuke’ which is a kind of cord toggle worn with traditional Japanese dress. There’s a fantastic collection in the V+A, all exquisitely hand-carved from wood, bone, jade, ivory and stone.
Also love this tiny octopus one too:
There are wonderful things in this World. Having a bike can help you find them.
The restorative powers of mountain biking are unsurpassed. Never have I come back from a ride thinking that was crap. Massively important for body and soul.
No ride today but can’t wait for tomorrows blast. Reckon it’s gonna be a tad chilly on the finger ends mind! Loving riding every other day at the moment in preperation for Wales two weeks today!! 😀
Heh! Remember that Rokeby geezer? I seen him recently just down the road from where I live, innit? Still with all that ‘cyborg’ twattage all over himself. Jeeze. And people on here think I’m an attention seeker! 😆
Liked the juxtaposition of this:
Wazunt the best exhibition I’ve bin to really. Bit ‘Hoxtonish’ for my liking. All frippery and floss, rather than really getting into the subject properly.
Lots of stylish young ladies though; if I hadunt bin so flatulently afflicted, I’duv bin well away. 😳
