Technically, Friday's and yesterday's rides. Did the South Downs Way from Lewes to Winchester and back with a few friends. Got the small matter of Lewes to Eastbourne and back today to complete the SDW double over three days.
I love this photo. That me stuffing my chops in the foreground.
My favourite riding partner recently shared his carefully distilled wisdom with me. I quote:
"Whenever I don’t ride the bike I feel shit then when I do I don’t feel shit"
An elegant summary.
The weather has changed here. The glorious spring has temporarily gone and left wet and windy in its wake.
A group of us are aiming to do the South Downs Way in both directions over three days from Friday to Sunday next week. I really hope the weather improves.
Technically, and actually, last night's ride. Things might be (mostly) dry here, but they are not smooth. A friend described the lush-looking field we crossed as being like hoof prints set in concrete covered in grass. Spot on. Corrugation Chicken!
Thank you for your lovely comment. Rest assured it gets a regular beating - as do I! The 650b wheels with my favourite Donnelly EMP 47mm tyres are particularly fun to ride once conditions are dry!
Out off road with some friends from Lewes Wanderers this morning.
Wild ponies were hogging the bridleways - fair enough, I suppose they have the main claim.
