Sorry to hear you're not able to ride.

I've also been off the bike for a couple of months now, broken arm here.

Wasn't too frustrated at first but strangely when the weather went crap after such a brilliant summer I got a bit sad that I'd missed all the dry fun.

Turbo trainer has helped a lot and in the last week I've managed to get out on a road bike a couple of times.

Oh, you wanted photos...

Think I recognise one of those "banks" 😉

Horrible being off the bike, sympathies. I´m just looking through photos because my season is drawing and I need cheering up. Here´s some I enjoyed:

Basque Coast
[img] [/img]

South Pyrenees, my guide Dave making me look bad.
[img] [/img]

Spanish Utah, sorry but that location is a secret!
[img] [/img]

Basque Coast, my guide Dave on one of our first rides together.
[img] [/img]

Basque Coast again.
[img] [/img]

Spanish Pyrenees again, off there in a couple of weeks for autumn.

@Doug Awesome day, thanks. Shame the seasons ended but surely time for sleep, or lack of it seeing little Doug is surely on it's way by now 😀
Oh and i'll be sending you a pretty huge email tomorrow, apologies.

@Bunnyhop, at the rate the council are going all the local dh's will be so flat you'll be able to ride them with one arm 🙁

I'm off the bike for a while too now!

Hey Spacehopper, loving those ones of our here, that last one´s an angle I´ve never considered before but it looks ace! Also check out Dave concentrating 🙂

Banks, looking forward to a long mail! Will take me a little bit to reply as I´m guiding tomorrow and then wee Doug-ina is on her way any second now.
