Decidedly true. But for people here and now this is mostly how we learned about it.

18 mile ride after work tonight. Was treating this as a training ride so was pushing myself but I can't deny that I just wanted to ride into the sunset.

Not too many rides this week due to work and other stuff... this thread encouraged me to get out after dinner this evening.
Probably attracted by the purple colour of my bike, I managed to get a photo of a shy and elusive pygmy giraffe - these solitary animals roam freely in the park..
Really don't want to waste these light evenings, as they will soon be gone again, plus the quiet park is lovely. Saw a green woodpecker today too... you hear them more often than you see them. 13km, 18C - light wind very pleasant ride

I have been on the hunt for a Salsa in turd brown. The Vagabond actually gets too much attention.

It looks like the weather is going to turn to shit this weekend so i took today off..
My kid has been working on the allotments this week, doing all the jobs the old folks don't want to do.. digging, strimming, removing brambles and such so we didn't get a game of tennis... instead
I rode up through Burbage
Through Longshaw and past White Edge Lodge, you can rent this joint as a holiday let, It was in the TV adaptation of Jane Eyre

It's a great year for Bilberries..
When i was a kid, my folks would take me, my friends and cousins out bilberry picking, we'd all have a bucket or a Wall's Icecream tub.. there would be a gang of kids on th hillside, our hands stained purple for the week.. they'd make bilberry jam, bilberry cheesecake, bilberry wine.. we'd live off them through the autumn, yet cost of living crisis and the bilberries are going to waste..
..i tried to tell them, sheep always rode Pace in the 90s
..did they believe me?

Indeed.. it's been a great year for moths too, we had a semi-transparent one (not nearly as transparent as a damselfly wing) on the window the other night.. i was trying not to scare it off when i closed the curtains.. alas, baywindow curtain struggles are real.. next day it was back, then it was inside the house on the shower glass when i was cleaning my teeth.. haven't seen it since.. maybe Lenny's eaten it?
