Helensburgh to Arrochar.

having the electric assist really helped maintain the momentum on some very fast roads.

shame about my saddle. The gel can’t support my weight, so I’m basically riding atop the saddles frame. Like balancing on the corner of a filing cabinet 😣😣😣

It must be Easter, because my arse was crucified.

luckily, I managed to find momentary solace in the Green Kettle.

Actually yesterday's photos (but I was fixing my bike when I should have been uploading) of the drama over breakfast (behind the van tyre) then the return at dinner time 

Time for a beer and some Mini eggs.

Moar Furnessy Lakes, cheeky gravel

Sunny cycle path in Onomichi 

The best pulled pork sarnie I’ve ever had. 

Insert small/far away Father Ted gif.

Small. It was a fine dining restaurant not subway. 

Not saying it was aliens, but…

Off in the distance, beyond the edge of the Cotswolds, directly above the seat, you can see, misty and grey, Bannau Brycheiniog! Probably Fan Fawr and Pen y Fan, they’re the two highest points, but it’s possible to see a range of hills in the distance when it’s clear like today was.

Daughter. Manchester. Marathon

Without doubt the worst energy bar I've ever had the misfortune to eat. Nearly a year out of date but was probably awful from the factory. Lovely ride though.  

These are in the woods right next to where I was shooting at archery earlier today, the air was full of their scent. Glorious.

Morning all 😃

3 days of cricket having not played in 37 years today was the best day as I got to play with my daughter.  

Surprise weekend snow fast disappearing

My friend Fi, first time she’s been to West Woods for many years, we couldn’t have timed it better.

The Wansdyke, West Woods, Marlborough.

I like how the local crows use next door’s bird bath to soften the dry slices of bread the people on the other side throw onto the roof of their shed…

2.8 injection

Not my picture, my friends son and his mate set off from Kirkcudbright at 6am this morning to get bus to Dumfries, train to Carlisle, bus to Keswick, then up a few hills, this was taken on Skiddaw tonight, and tomorrow they’re walking 25 miles back to Carlisle then train to Dumfries and either bus back home or I’ll pick them up.

I think he’s got a highers exam on Monday, a good walk in the hills is the type of revision that I approve of 😉

I have a Lancia Fulvia HF in my imaginary collection of classic rally cars.

1.  Big boy crane.

Absolutely perfect conditions for a sunny evening ride

Chilled C2C over 3 days. On reaching the Pennines we really noticed the strong cold NE'ly off the North Sea 🥶

☀️🔥 in The Lakes 😊

Have you seen me washboard?

is this a new musical genre: surfbilly!

Baby Robin?

“Feed me, Dad, feed me now!”

Found a truly wonderful spot of Limestone pavement while on a short ride with the dog. Stunning.  

Just the thing to discourage poor driving and people who walk out in front of you…

Not significant in the grand scheme of things, but pretty important if you're local. Think pound shop sycamore gap stuff!

The blackbird who owns my garden thoroughly enjoying the birdbath earlier today…

All taken on IPhone!

I do like some crepuscular rays in the evening. 😎

Back in my happy place 😁
