Today's Ride

[moonlite]

Took off early this morning to cram in a ride before Easter eating and drinking kicked in. Both sons are home and were snoring in their pits as I left. Cool morning but bright and clear -- very nice to be out on the dirt.

Spent some time mooching around some overgrown trails outside town, got a bit lost, and had to hurry home to help feed the masses. Sons still snoring in their pits -- their capacity for immobility never fails to impress me.

16 miles 1,181 feet of elevation 9.2 mph avg. Lot of carrying the bike through stingers and brambles on trails long given up on !
Look's like there heading for the tip,but not worth saving.

Brisk 15-20mph SSE breeze. Mixture of very low dank grey cloud, with breaks of high white cloud and a glimpse of sky and sunshine. Mild'ish 8 degrees.

After some heavy and persistant rain over the past 3 days, this mornings break meant a 20 mile scoot around the block. Last weeks dry trials are a thing of the past, so back on Simone which is no bad thing at all. Reynolds really nailled it with 853 didn't they.

I was wondering why so many cars were heading to Sennen then I remembered it's park run

A beautiful, sunny day before Christmas, I took a short drive through the Prądnik Valley along the river, a wonderful place ....... and then a well-deserved drink from the Gods, which they gave us .... thousands of years ago.
Of course, homemade....


music for this day.....

The weather is unpredictable at the moment and the forecast changes by the day...thankfully it is changing from rainy to sunny (result!!) I have some time off and some family stuff to attend to, but am determined to fit in some rides too.!

Familiar location, but unusual to find fresh venison on the single track!!

These Lime Trees were planted in 1622, now coming into leaf for their 403rd summer!!

This bike was made in 1996. Still a fab ride. Lovely day today 17C, sunny, but very windy - an enjoyable 15km

 

[al-onestare]

Hazy high cloud, a ton of moisture in the air, calm 5-8mph SE breaths of wind. Sunshine burning through. 8 degrees, rising to 11 in exposed spots.

Pretty much perfect conditions for a 30 miler to start the day





Best enjoy the rest of the day before it turns again.
