Thanks mate. Here's a pic of my new titanium upgrades. Another three weeks until physiotherapy can start -- I've invested in a turbo trainer so I can do a bit of spinning at home, which the surgeon says will be good for the ankle.

Sandvick quality I hope!

Proper, reasonable winter has decided to turn up and give everyone a long-overdue bit of restbite from the incessant wind and rain. Please stay till March. Ta.

Yesterday was a quality ride to St Ives, Towednack, Nancledra, Chysausater, New Mill, Madron, Sancreed and home. I even did it with someone else. Amazing scenes! Light NE breeze, 6-8 mph, blue skies and pale sunshine. 5-6 degrees but with the wind chill, 2-3. Pics all from the B3306.

Are those the Himalayas in the distance?

Have a closer look at the stickers

Some garage queens secretly like being flung about in mud . Obviously Panaracers' top mud plugging tyre , the Pasela helps with this .

Day vision cammo busting filters make it possible to see her when she drops to sub sonic speeds.

Once she's in the woods she loosens up a bit but she'll never be a tree climbing tom boy . You can't have it all .

When she starts getting filthy she looks great from behind and if you squint you can see her tiny heart . Bless .

There's scope for a one handed wild wet ride gag but I'm shy so .......

Then home and hose down before anyone notices

Pretty sure Campag Record was supposed to be used like this .
No gravel was ground in the making of this childish mess . Thanks Winston .

If it's any consolation moonlite, I've got a matching set in INNOX stainless in my left fib plus a couple of pins in the ankle - Alps 1982. Make sure you do push it in rehab [though it will hurt!!] and you'll get a full recovery, I was out skiing today. My best wishes to you for a full recovery.

Brisk and beautiful weather , bright sunshine and a whisper of breeze .

Sunny with a cold wind.But when i got into the valley there was water everywhere even after five dry day's ! I suppose the hill's just could not hold the water any longer . So with a windchill of -10 most of the time and wet feet it could of been better.

First bit of 2024ing today and last Wednesday on the ground to air missile

got me some original 80s cebe antifog ski goggs for xmas off the bay for the price of 3 northern pints or 1 and half southern pints, they are super neon and there’s probably definitely something in that rubber surround they can’t put in today, seem to be lasting better than my old snazzy fox mx goggs though that seemed to fog up and scratch just looking at them….

Been doing some dry stone walling and trial caretaking over the last few weeks, on occasion with one of the lads; one rainy night between Xmas and ny we decided to randomly go digging and fixing with lights

today was fun and fast with a thawing frost

happy 2024
