whats everyone up to tonight?

i’m doing a talk on one of our herts shore dvds at glaxo social club in ware. beer and bikes rocks 🙂

Riding my bike around rather than on Dumyat.

I’m off to the ballet

I have got my boss coming over for a night of movies and good grub.

1 polished apple at the ready.

Feeling unwell, and wondering if the parts I have just ordered will be enough to restore the Yeti to rideability ready for the Spring.

I’m cycling from work to pick up my club jersey for the upcoming TT / road race season, then home for sausages and baked potato and bed

sticking tireweld into the slow puncture on the wheel on the landy and fitting a lift pump to get it functional again for the forecast snow at the weekend….

then going for a wee run into the woods in me joggers.

might even empty the van after the weekends hiking/fellrunning/skiing and cycling – long weekends for the win !

If the rain stops I will start stripping the paint off my enduro. If it doesnt then I will sit on the sofa feeling sorry for myself because I had two toenails removed last week.

i’m off to play underwater hockey in a 4m deep pool.

make sure bike is fixed (i have fitted new parts but not ridden it)

check inflatable mat for leak (in the bath?) any tips?

look for bivi stuff – out on friday not been for months.

measure the van for campervan plans

make some beanburgers for dinner (jeena’s kitchen recipe)

busy boy.

Packing boxes for me..

Have fun with that one Jedi, sounds a great thing to be able to do.

I’m going to attempt to stop playing about and looking at photos from last year and instead make a start on my next blog post.

In fact i might even start before tonight.

Latest episode of House + green smelly stuff + pizza I think 😀

Swim if I can be bothered, then band rehearsal. I think we’re recycling some Johnny Cash tonight

sharki, yours is a book i would buy and read if you did one.
sharki- one long walk

1. exchanging some english beer tokens for euro beer tokens.
2. fitting those silly headlamp beam deflectors and the roofbox
3. sharpening & waxing skis

off to school tonight! have just about retired from the long term job and setting up as a gardener. doing the RHS level II horticulture course at agi college, really enjoying it as well, who’d a thought it.
looking forward to being own boss, working outdoors and suiting myself for a change.

Riding tonight instead of tomorrow night…

Building f-ing gearboxes for Barcelona test all night! F1 is so glamourous!

In the studio re-recording my bass

attempting to persuade myself to go for a night ride

working til 7 in the morning 👿

going For a ride out of Ambleside and hoping my Bottom Bracket doesn’t fall out……………
This will however give me a very good excuse to cut the ride short as I’ve not been for three months and am pretty sure I’m about to get a beasting 😛

plus the weathers crap

Cheers Jedi.

It still scares the crap out of me just how long it’s going to take me.

Starting drafting things out back in September, only technically on day 10/120 😯

S’Tuesday night to we’ll be out riding in the mud and slip-sliding all over the place, marvelling at the amount of water damage from last weekends rain, eating Jelly Babies, drinking whisky and then stopping for a beer or 2 on the way home. Life’s grand.

*Cycling home 7.5 miles from Totnes.
*Cooking supper (fish pie & veg) for family.
*Driving 7.5 miles back to Totnes to take son to army cadets.
*Driving 12.5 miles back the way I came and beyond to Dartmouth Canoe Club instructors’ meeting at pub in Dartmouth.(drinking nowt ‘cos I’m driving & on also wagon until 1st March 🙁 ).
*Driving 5 miles back home in other direction.
*Changing front wheel on road bike for commute into work tomorrow.
*Shouting at partner & kids ‘cos I’m tired!

Not really that interesting.

Clearing the streets of Prostitutes here.

Getting my hair cut ready for my mums funeral in the morning 🙁

Jedi – say hello to all my mates at Glaxo ASSC for me – used to ride with those guys until a year ago when I moved to Nottingham. Great bunch of guys 🙂

Slugwash.

Pop into Alfresco’s if you have time and say hi to the owner there. He Rides BTW and look at the graffiti on the wall upstairs. One bit says, Simon Hill loves this place, all wrote in a heart….Bless! 😉

That’ll be Piers. Here’s a photo I took of him a few years ago up on Dartmoor. He’s extremely scared of both water & heights so my friend Ian had to talk him over one particularly tricky crossing…..

(Sorry Piers 😉 )

Working late and then a much needed massage 🙂

Was going to be slouching in front of the tv, but got invited out for a night ride so will be doing that instead 🙂

That’s the fella Slugwash.

One of the most friendly, personable and happy bars/cafes i had the pleasure to visit.

He makes the place.

slugwash lives in Cornworthy ?/=
Sending positive vibes to Lowey
Going for a night ride – prayin gfo rno punctures as I have no spare innertube – well one but it has a slow leak

relaxing and trying not to think about my hospital appointment tomorrow, and maybe prep for a meeting on Thursday to take my mind of things, no riding tonight as just got in and i think i just emptied my skill bank riding fixed gear in the rain on damp roads home, so now i don’t want to tempt fate.

Slight hijack, I Ache, how may i ask are you stripping the paint from your Enduro, i’ve a frame i want to strip and paint, and am curious as to how other people have done it.

Positive vibes heading your way Lowey

Oh and when and where do I pre order Sharki’s book?

dgoab, i give a great massage 😉

Just off for a dog walk….

Hora. You can’t do that. You left your hammer at ours.

Naked paragliding for me. Actually I might wear my cape this time. Its a bit nippy.

Oh… Lowey. Hope it isn’t too bad tomorrow dude. We’re with you in spirit brother

Gonna sit on my arse bitchin at the tv or posting shite on here. Same as usual.

Thinking about Morzine in July, shopping, thinking about Morzine, bus home, thinking about Morzine, bed, dreaming about Morzine
