what did you do?
Bad back ๐
Made cider ๐
APF
I spent all day in bed with a moderate attack of manflu like symptoms, and I have work to do tomorrow. Boooo.....
Stuck in work all day aaarrrrgggghhhh
Yep totally wasted, sofa and newspaper all day.
It would appear that guzzling damson vodka into the wee small hours is not compatible with getting up early to go out on a bike.
60 miles round the lovely Cheshire lanes on the SS road bike. Gorgeous day.
Yep late to sleep as working, up early and more work so cleaned the car for a few hours, planning to stroll up Snowdon on foot tomorrow to make up for it, and probably rebuild one of the bikes ready for next week. Nice pic rocketdog here's one of my days work ๐
I spent the day inside decorating whilst it was sunny.
Going for a ride in the fog in the morning.
Went and did a few road laps round The Great Orme (where the WRC was on thurs) as the sun went down, was a bit sullied by a boy racer maniac coming up the wrong way (tis one way) as I was descending at 30mph, if there was no wind I'd be at 40mph and certain road paste. Scared the crap outta me, who says road riding is boring.
Sick in bed no riding for me this weekend. Sodding germs.
rOcKeTdOg - what's the freak bike then?
Was lovely in the sun so I had a little walk around Salisbury Plain. 8)
Rode around a muddy field for an hour ๐
CG, a 69er
Been ill in bed for two days ๐ฟ
Beyootiful day in the Peak, I had a VERY muddy and joyous ride ...I think I pedalled twice as far as I travelled.
Went out with the local road club for a blast. Swift would best describe the pace. ๐ฏ
"here's one of my days work"
I think you cleaned the number plate too well
Kind of wasted it really. Though got an hour locally on a SS made up of parts too worn out for other bikes. I think I got the gear wrong as there was a lot of spinning out and saddle bouncing, but no grinding away out the saddle
Not wasted but certainly not out mountain biking having fun. A pleasant family day followed by looking at my shot linkage/pivot bearings and sobbing gently.
I've spent the day lounging about, vaguely doing work and day dreaming about bikes! Stupid arm...
ohh I did, but fear not, the plan is to use the work industrial x-ray machine and a dremel to insert the herbert screw and my two piece scaphoid will be as good as new!
on call out
Got called out to Exmouth but all was not lost I took the wife and mutt with me and we had an ace walk down the beach
i only got up at 5.30 pm today (was playing skyrim for around 15 hours yesterday/this morning) am now doing the same thing again ๐ the game is fantastic ๐ what's a bike ๐ณ
Was inside but drooling over some great Classic Cars at the NEC... out for a muddy one tomorrow morning.
james - I better check that in the morning ๐
In many ways yes, I did waste it..
popped into the LBS this morning for a whinge about SLX M665 chainring compatibility issues and to give the owner a chance to shame me over the years of baked on crud and cheap grease encasing my front mech..
then an afternoon and evening of generic 'family stuff' including the supermarket, in-laws and a few hours of wooden trainset bizzle...
25 mile pootle out to Tynemouth for coffee and back. First ride on new road bike. First ride since RTA that smashed last bike and me! Mainly stayed away from traffic. Nice n sunny. Panno choc with latte - all good. ๐
I definitely didn't waste the day.
You are definitely not seeing pictures.
Yes. Knackered achilles so didn't go orienteering this morning as planned. Didn't even get out on my uni today (I reckon practising on that's made the achilles worse). First low wind day for a while and I didn't even manage to get out to fly any of my RC planes. Total waste of a day.
Had a lovely 50 miler on the road tandem avec Mrs BL and a nice 10 mile run this afternoon as the the sun went down.
I feel I've earned my carbs this evening ๐
Lovely day slithering about at innerleithen. Small amount of bus assistance. Noticable amount of leaving the head unit for my good light in the car. Large amount of whimpering on the last descent.
Incidentally, the course for next week's enduro race is completely mint, you will not regret it if you live. Which you may not.
Twice round carron valley for me today.
A lap of Golspie in the morning, removed two drowned mice from a defrosted deepfreezer in the afternoon, made extremely awesome guacamole in the evening - what a day...........
Errand running for me in prep for tomorrow's departure for the continent so no riding. Did plot next Saturday's ride though; 50 miles with some cat 4 and cat 3 climbs.
Didn't find time to ride my bike, but took the boy out on his balance bike for an hour, does that count?
Damn well going out tomorrow though.
Got up early to do shepherding then off-road to work... could not resist the tops and shaved 5 mins off my CX best for the London Road bit of the Mary Townley loop. That's 5 mins more to rub mud off face before opening shop to the discerning ladies of Hebden Bridge ๐
Brilliantly muddy day around Swinley in the sunshine.
anto164 - is that Parkgate?
Fantastic pic birky. Care to divulge any more info?! Route etc ๐
Rode the Gorrick course at Crowthorne woods in the dark with my Exposure Strada. Then onto some of Swinley' more famous singletrack. Just back. Surprisingly warm too.
Getting lapped at least once by Rorscach ๐
30 miles odd route around surrey hills rode up to the tower and the sun came out.
Brilliant day muddy as hell loved every minute !
lovely ride on my new to me jones, followed by an afternoon of making cakes and drinking large quantities of tip top niche beer. happy days
turbo training at 06:00 tomorrow will hurt a bit though ๐
