The little lady is away tonight, so I shall enjoy the quiet pleasures of bike-tinkering in the man cave with a beer, followed by Cirencester Best Kebab's finest shish/kofta mix and another beer or two in front of something on the telly .
Ride tomorrow morning from Castle Combe (joiners welcome), then do a bit of pre hollibobs shopping in the afternoon. out for a meal in the evening with friends
Ridiculous o'clock start on Sunday as she's doing a triathlon and I'm official coat-holder/cheerleader. Maybe another ride, very possibly a sunday roast.
Lovely.
Somewhere near Weymouth / Lyme Regis. Biking and Diving.
Drumlanrig on sunday, followed hopefully by watching the world champs replays. Saturday currently looks like I'm taking the cross bike round glentress red, for reasons I don't really quite understand
Working, and not even a good shift where i could ride either before or after work 🙁 currently 2 days into a 7 day stint after stupidly agreeing to do a shift swap!
Cos it's there Northwind, cos it's there.
Saturday will be a bad day for constant lamo "witty" comments tho, regarding your bike selection decision that morning. Better under cover of darkness when the Mincers won't spot you. Unless night-vision goggles are vital equipment for a red run these days.
DIY indoors on Saturday 😥
Laggan on Sunday 😀
Nice extended ride home tonight, finishing with meeting the better half and some mates for beers in t'pub. Then on for something to eat
Gisburn in the morning. Then being accosted by returning offspring. All in all, not a bad old line up 😀
Going to ride the Wiggle New Forest Sportive route in preparation for the actual event in October.
are you coat holding at Keynes Country Park on Sunday? I'm racing (may be an overstatement) there as well.
Tis the first day of summer today - Mendips should start drying out nicely, so will head there on Sunday.
[i]are you coat holding at Keynes Country Park on Sunday?[/i]
Indeed I am. Are you registering tomorrow? Stick your number on here, I'll cheerlead for you too if I spot you 🙂
After a week on holiday doing diy( stripping and painting windows) ..... Ill continue the theme with more diy. New boiler going in
Ride first thing sunday though before the plumber gets here.
Gonna be a warm winter this year after 2 years of eeking out the one tank of oil and limited wood i could get hold of ill have a decent boiler tht wont burn oil like an engine with knackered piston rings and ive got a reliable source of seasoned wood 🙂 and have proactively stocked my wood shed to the brim and filled 2 full size oil barrels of cut ready to burn wood!
hels - MemberSaturday will be a bad day for constant lamo "witty" comments tho, regarding your bike selection decision that morning.
Pff, what's the point in doing it, if there's no mincers to overtake, or witnesses to see me die?
Karate training tomorrow, then might get dragged round the flower and food festival in the afternoon.
Glentress on Sunday. Good times.
Quantocks. First time in about three years. Then beer with some old friends I haven't seen for ages. That's a bit 🙂 from me.
Mine started today so did 27 hilly roadie miles round Bollington, The Goyt, and back through Sutton. Out round The Peak tomorrow, don't know the route as its planned by Rob off here. I do know it starts and finishes at the pub, which isn't a bad thing.
Sunday is a day out with the Mrs somewhere if the weather holds then Pork roast dinner.
Building up my new X frame, or I would be if the parts had been dispatched yet. 😥
Got a marathon in s few weeks so it's all running, I'm afraid

Probably not amazing state but it had not rained for three days so maybe not too bad if trails are selected carefully.
