Errr sorry.
My fault.
First weekend I can ride for weeks after a hockey injury.
Are you talking proper hockey, or field hockey?
Proper hockey, not this dancing on ice in pads & helmets nonsense. ๐
Well, that was interesting/fun!
Had to use my head torch on a mix of low & high as there's something up with my Lumi battery. So, I had that mild paranoia that I was going to be plunged into darkness at any moment. I also had the film Dog Soldiers in my head because of all the deers' eyes I kept seeing.
There were some really cold sections - glad I stuck to leggings, rather than shorts.
Saw loads of deer, rabbits and 2 barn owls which always makes my evening.
Getting changed in dark car park listening to Jamie Cullum (sp?) on Radio 2 playing assorted jazz was a bit weird.
All in all a good evening topped off with a large chicken shish. Need to go & empty the car now!
Oh, and it was pretty much ideal riding conditions, to be honest. Too dry & Thetford is very sandy, so it's nice when there's a bit of moisture...
A lovely fast evening ride on the mendip. Ah well.
2 hrs of dry and dusty trails at Mugdock tonight with GMBC - best conditions there in a year !
Still nice and dry up at Farleton Knott earlier, though it started raining on the way home. Cracking ride despite the double puncture on the last descent. ๐ฟ
I was clearly on for a Strava KOM too. ๐
It's due to rain for the next few days here but then get nice again next week according to this:
