Just got back. Despite having hardly ridden over the winter i set a PB on a little road loop. Sunny, blue skies, warm, great tail wind on the way back.
Yes
Yep 45 mile loop around Brickhill woods and Millbrook/Marston Moretaine on the MTB. Lovely.
Was going too, out yesterday but at tail end of havng a cold, so i thought, relapse today and back with aches and temperature 🙁 so decided to sit out ride with mate today.
In better news got some nice sausages from the local farm shop and had a sandwich for lunch with some HP which was lovely. 🙂
no, did mention I'd broken my foot........oh, I did
moan, whinge, whine 🙁
50 mile reliability ride followed by cake and coffee and now off out on the MTB to play in the sunshine. 😀
no 😥
running two ou courses back to back and working full time.
i worked out earlier that i haven't spent more than an hour outdoors since new years day.
roll on may.
Waiting for a train home after a ride through Ashton Court and Leigh Woods. Gert lovely day. 😉
No ...... Decorating the boys room .

Though I did get to FOD Friday so it's ok
so lovely i took my fat, stupid knee out for a gentle road ride. first time out in two months. now i'm packed in ice and feeling rather contented with life
Not been for about 2 weeks since I sold my bike, absolutely gorgeous here today and I get my new bike tomorrow 🙁 I'm on edge, I know the weather will be rubbish tomorrow and for a while after, bit of a shame but oh well. Summer soon we should have at least 3 nice days then.
No. 🙁
This year I have ridden all through the winter to make those sunny days even better and what happens....
The first bloody sunny days we get and I get a stinking cold! Gutted.
It was blowing a gale here in Fife, but dry and sunny, all was good until......

walk with the Mrs this morning, roast chicken dinner in the garden in about half an hour.
day 6 of recovery from foot operation, 3 weeks min till I get on a bike..... 😥 bought loads online though ! 😆
50 mile hilly road ride. Sunny, warm(relatively) but blustery. A few dodgy moments with high speeds and crosswinds. None the less a great day.

Ohh bet that made a bit of a bang?
Turner?
Just got back from chilterns, never seen it so busy.
Bit of a mixed bag it seems. I had a huge smile on my face on the way back - Chasing Rainbows came on my iPod and I still had legs to push. I ******* love cycling.
nice 3 1/2 hours out round the mendips. Got very muddy.
roast chicken & charming spanish number was sublime 🙂
40 miles on the road bike at 8.30 am, made 3 large wooden planters for the patio, just watched Columbo.
He got the boys who did it 😉
Ohh bet that made a bit of a bang?Turner?
The first side went with a crack, I thought it was two rock colliding. We rode another ten miles of so with a couple of fast descents. The second crack was indeed a bang, just after a flight of stairs.
Yep, it's a Turner.
Just seen your other thread.
Top gnar to you, only snapped whole frames so far, oh hang on I have snapped the center link on a Mongoose Tacoli.
Hope you get it sorted.

What was her name?
No sun in Lancashire 🙁
Didn't stop me heading out for 5 hours / 132km on the road bike though 🙂
Hamsterley forest for me and about 15 others together. Was so good! Sun out, trails mostly dry, I loved it!
Weeks holiday in Swaledale and the weather has been gorgous. Was just in a t shirt today.
Spent the day with the kids at the fantastic Cannon Hall Farm down Barnsley way; best adventure playground, pork pies and farm shop I know then watched Wiggins win Paris-Nice on catch up. A proper bo non cycling day I tell thee

tempranillo
Been at work today but just about to get out on the road bike in the evening sun 🙂
yep, awesome
lots of cheeky, considerate horse riders, twerpt with a dog, some rather pleasant new cough paths, llama, turkey, guinea fowls, hordes of ramblers, blazing sun, still lots of puddles, a large number of 'landowners or appointed factors thereof' wishing me a good morning, blossoming plant life everywhere, so pleasnt that we stooped at the pub on the way back, a beer with my shirt sleeves rolled up and the sun blazing down - yahooooooooooooo
50 miles before work this morning (7.30 start!)
Freshly fettled bike, new tyres, short sleeves and dry dusty trails - plus a day off tomorrow for more of the same 😀
life can indeed be good !!
Yep. Nice 21 miler today around FOD
First MTB ride in 3 months today. Picked a good day for it 🙂
Really? Blowing a gale, overcast, dull and about 6 degrees (but dry) in central Scotland, although it has to be said a definite improvement! I would have been out if i wasn't working @ 5am this morning! 🙁
i took the absolutely totally amazing, lovely new road bike for a 30 mile spin this morning. loved it!
Ashton Court and Leigh Woods. Gert lovely day.
+1
Rather busy on the main trails as the weather brought plenty of people out.
68km in the Peak District.
Popped out for a quick blast on my DB Alpine on the North Downs. First time I'd ridden it this year, as I have been riding my Soul during winter which has mud tyres on it. I had forgotten what a lot of fun the Alpine is. Totally overkill for todays ride but well worth it for the fun I had and the smile I had on my face when I came back.
Cracking 40km ride yesterday taking in all the best bits of Lustleigh Cleave and made it 2-2 in the clearances contest on the cleaver trail.
Haldon today for a blast round some wooded singletrack. Best weekend in ages!
pottered around on a solo ride for 49 miles today out at 11 am just in at 6 , stopped at 5 pub's , no map no route just saw the weather and went out and spun the cogs .. so much to do in the house but could not refuse those clear skys.. headphone in buzzing
Brechfa Gorlech trail - half time bananna sat in the sun watching a pair of buzzards just larking about on the thermals. Great.
Amazing riding in the Quantocks today.
You don't have to go very far to accumulate alot of elevation gain.

3 1/2 hour blast round Woburn this morning. Never been, and really enjoyed it.
Then 2hrs fettling in the sunshine, in prep for the new frame arrival 😀

Innerleithen xc route with a couple of very steep off piste bits thrown in. Beautiful day and very busy with the uplift . Sadly burger van had bolted by the time we came down.
Gentle pootle along the Manifold trail with the family. Sun shone, oatcakes were good.
Pitmedden was excellent. Most of the trees have been cleared. Trails dry almost dusty. Then went on to Tentsmuir to meet up with the family for a barbecue. Even got to ride a horse for a bit!
