MegaSack DRAW - This year's winner is user - rgwb
We will be in touch
My day consisted of cycling the Trans Pennine Trail from St Helen's to Southport, cafe stop on the way, then fish'n'chips at Southport. I had to recce the route for a ride I'll be leading in a couple of weeks time - it's tough work, but someone had to do it 😀
That's a heck of a lot better than mine.
Never got going today. Not in the mood for it. Looking forward to the w/end though; wicked ride lined up follow by a chill before 3 weekends of visiting family mayhem.
even the weather was nice today ....not jealous
Not me I spent a day off building a fireplace and you wer ein work and had a batter day
Life is not fair you jammy sod
In what way does St Helens to Southport involve Trans Pennine? But I guess anything that takes you away from St Helens is a good thing 😆
Actually, I would be interested in the route if you have a map handy or can point me in the right direction. Up in St Helens every now and again visiting my Dad.
SHIT day at work today :evil:. Printer decided to **** up, printing all wrong colours, cost me a small fortune to get sorte,d no money earnt today, need to play catch up monday. so am getting pissed now to cheer myself up a bit 😀
GJP - I can email you a .gpx route file if you want?

What is it like for a [young] kids ride?
I assume it is all flat and off road?
Lady G - Yes please if you don't mind. My email in my profile. Thx Gary
Actually did some work today! Spent the week catching up on email and work after two weeks on which has only been hindered by my research on lights for the winter! Obviously not quite as good as yours...
Mine was pretty good, found out I'm due a 20% payrise, nice. Major sesh planned for tomorrow!
Stayed at a 5* hotel in Rome. Taxi ride back to the airport via the Collesium, Forum, Palatine etc. Upgraded on the flight back and got in early to watch the school sports day. Fab day - it doesn't often work like that!
Lady Gresley did Sir Nigel accompny you on the old Cheshire lines railway, now part of the TPT.
Ask me again next Thursday when it will be my last day in the public sector.
Route emailed, gentlemen 🙂
To be fair I wished I had a shite day at work even!!!
Me: it's my birthday today, so my colleague baked a batch of cupcakes. The golf clubs I ordered yesterday arrived today and I got told that I've been given a promotion.
I can't help thinking that something's about to go horribly wrong...
our lot announced extra days holidays for those with long service
5 yrs -1 more day
10 yrs - 2 more days
15 yrs 3 more days
I copped for the 3 and we get them for this year too
so not too bad today
Started work at 12. Had 40 mins of work lined up for a 7 hour day. Spent the rest of the day helping my mate modify his cassette into a 4 speed for his DH bike. Cleaned my own bike for the rest of the day. Oh, surfed the net a lot too.
I was asked to 'jump on a plane to Rio', whilst waiting to hear if I've signed up the best client I could ever imagine having. While this was happening I met Mrs iDave for a coffee, went for a run, became involved in a feud, and drank some wine.
Day didnt start too well puncture on the way to work
discovered I'd left the tyre levers In the garage
managed to get the tyre off using my keys !!!
manhandled it back on as the rain started
with 3 miles still to go... on the upside got
a free kit kat out the vending machine at work
so not a bad day
I rode my bike for 83 miles around Yorkshire yesterday..for my work. Doesn't pay a penny but hopefully one day it will.
Been on the Tom and dick for three months. Had a brain seizure and work won't let me back until I've had the results back from my scans. The wheels of the NHS turn very slow.
Had a terrible day, all left turns..
Derek, are you a NASCAR driver?
I don't do "work" anymore...
whilst its better than being in the office, thats one boring route!!
As a certified bike bum I did my duty and spent my afternoon riding 🙂
Lafy G you forgot the goecaching and the beer when we got back to Manchester!
Junkyard, email me I have lots of similar routes as I've been planning and riding them all summer. Some that would be brilliant for young people.
Me and one of the IT guys clubbed together for an expresso/cappucino machine. Had fun making some 'perky' coffee, which was a welcomed break from Audit Commission queries.
Not a bad machine for the money: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Delonghi-EC152-Espresso-Coffee-Machine/dp/B003U2SLI8/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1316851060&sr=8-2
Was £53 when we ordered it a week ago.
Every day a work is great, but then i have the best job in the world. 😀
will do and long time no see
