Wall to wall sunshine. Perfect for trying out my new Spesh Turbo Cotton tyres. 100km to the seaside and back. Very nice indeed.

Fantastic pic. I've only got humble Conti Grand Prix, but I still should have taken a pic of my own.

Is that bike a specialised? Looks like it could be from the frame shape but I just can't tell!

26 might be a squeeze on my ancient bike. Anyway, these were free which trumps all ๐Ÿ™‚

Ah, free is always the best price! and yours are much better than mine as mine are in the garage whilst I'm at work today.

Today I test-rode a Bianchi Infinito CV and my son an Oltre. They were very nice indeed. Wish we could afford them.

You rode to the seaside without a couple of quid for an ice cream?
I'm lost for words. ๐Ÿ˜‰

Very nice, but some of us were back from our 100 km before the sun had really got going. Still had a nice walk with the dog this afternoon.

I sensibly decided not to venture out until the sun had warmed things up. Lazy morning, fun afternoon ๐Ÿ™‚

Approved.
I waited till 1pm to go out . Put on arm warmers , for about 30 mins...
Got back after 4hours across hampshire , then realised I hadnt pressed start on the Garmin as I was concentrating on following the gpx route. doh.
Was stunning to be out and pretty much twunt free, for a change.
