Id post my kids bedrooms up but im not that good at painting to show it on the internet. BUT... the decorating is now finished and i can finally get back on a bike 😉

Friday - Got drunk with mates and rode rollers

[img] [/img]

Saturday - Cycle club dinner and won some trophies

[img] [/img]

Sunday - Rode up a big hill on an inappropriate bike

[img] [/img]

Looks good Ton.

Had a nice snowy spin around Rivington on Saturday. Not even a snapped chain spoiled it. Thunderstorm directly overhead was a little worrying though 🙂

Yesterdays walk....

Monitoring important world events

Looks like the cars going nowhere then....

[img] [/img]

Good job the pub was open 😀

No pics of a very boggy loop around Gower, best forgotten.

-4 walking off the hill, I think well into the -10 with windchill. The kids didn't notice.
[img] [/img]

Shakedown SS ride.... MUST remember to take 15mm ratchet spanners on SS rides, especially maiden rides.

Also lesson learnt.... road sprockets do NOT make for good SS sprockets.

[img] [/img]

The ride itself was GREAT though 🙂

There was a lot of mud, sweat and tears beforehand. Obviously.

The nearest I got to a ride this weekend was these Brooks saddle coat hangers in a bar we went in.

Really beautiful/ fun ride in the quantocks today

Them coat hangers are brilliant!

Yesterday - couldn't get out on the bike in the snow as the wife had a Dr's appointment and it had all gone when we got back.[img] [/img]
Today : nice frosty ride this morning which had a sound track of ice cracking, lots of black ice on the road sections, felt like I was being chased / stalked by velociraptor's at one point as their were a couple of birds making strange hooting calls to each other.

[img] [/img]

This just about sums up Saturday's ride.
[img] [/img]
My shoes are still drying by the radiator after I had to wash the mud out of the inside!

Edit: Great fun though, nothing like being the first to crack the ice on the puddles.

No biking as bandito_boy#2 was poorly, so bandito_boy#1 and I hit the slopes.

how do you get instagram photos to directly show on the forum??? rather than the link itself?

Started with this-

No photos from me despite a pledge to actually take some whilst out riding 🙄

But the weekend only contained arse up/head down roadie riding in the Downs. So imagine clear skies, Flint covered lanes, field run off, grime, and some dry B-road bashing. 8)

Escaped to Shropshire for the weekend
