I’m taking a group coaching and can’t wait!!! We’re all really excited. Group ranges from less to more experienced and we’ve even got a guy coming along who only has 5% vision! Going to be a really interesting experience.
I’ll be off for a gentle ride with my camera and the assorted gear a bit later. Afterwards it’ll be a party time (or, more accurately, being nice to people who came to visit) due to my birthday today. Then some cake, beer (non-alcoholic, obviously), more cake. Should be a nice day.
Well, I was going riding (supposed to leave about 07:00), but the torrential downpour outside my front door – despite what the Met Office forecast insists is happening – has well and truly put me off. So probably resealing the shower, and going riding tomorrow.
I’m being a ‘guest’ instructor on my son’s Scout Camp today, I’m teaching improvised shelters, and since it’s honking down in Chester I suspect there may be various levels of interest on display!
I tried that line on myself at 06:30 – it’s now 07:45 and it still hasn’t passed! I am feeling slightly embarrassed about this sudden bout of wimpishness 😳
C’mon mttm go for it. The rain is absolutely pelting down outside my window, but I’m going to get my kit o and head out towards Stirling to hopefully meet up with some other loons. The weatherman has assured me it’s gonna clear up this morning. C’mon, it’ll be a laugh.
Got in after a 25 mile extended road commute home off nights about half hour ago, I’ve got my 7 month old up, eating toast and watching Cbeebies, I’m halfway down a rather tasty glass of wine, and since I’ve just joined in singing the theme music to Chugginton’s, I think I’ll be having some more! I rather looking forward to some sleep before another lovely night at work…..
Missed my window this morning – I need to be gone before seven or I can’t get back in time. Not too worried, unusually for me, just a little embarrassed. Met Office have kindly painted a large smiley sun on tomorrow’s forecast – that’ll do for me.
mostly watching cbeebies… cleaning the house and delivering cakes… I remember hearing a rumour that I might get a few hours to myself this afternoon.. In which case I’ll be nipping out along the cliffs on my bike..
I can’t believe no-one’s going to Swaledale, there’s a big event on & Steve Peat’s riding (our Peaty, not a spurious one) So we’re doing a ride & watching a bit of the race as well, I’ll try & get some photo’s.
Johhny m, good luck with your business hope it goes well.
In bed watched, F1 qualies, now the rugby, ride later then packing for Scotland biking trip followed by trip to the new real ale pub opening down the road
most likely heading to my local trails (Carron Valley) for some cross bike action, gets me a few road miles and a fun spin round in the mud. double bubble.
as my gran used to say, “you’re not sugar and you’re not salt so you’ll not melt, get out into that rain!”
quiet day today.
I dropped the car off at 8.30 for a pair of new tyres on the front and rear brake pads.
missus has taken the kids to saturday morning cinema (£1 each)
got a bit of pottering in the garden to do.
Trying to think of somewhere to ride tomorrow – got an unexpected full day pass – the weather looks ok – probably Peaks way – anyone else out in the Peak district tomorrow?
Did a night ride last night so got to clean bike up, clean kitchen and put some new lights up in the lounge before the tribe gets back from a Girlie shpping trip to Cardiff.
Thinking I may get stuck in the garage stripping my Bontranger hubs as they need greasing – I feel trouble ahead when I don’t get my chores done – oh well what the heck 😉
Probably get a small ride in with my son on his trail gator after yesterdays successful first ride – funny how some of the most enjoyable rides don’t have to be banzai technical ones…..
In the office all day today, maybe swap everything over to my new cross frame tonight – if I think I can get it finished in one evening, then preparing things to get off early to CXL4 tomorrow.
