Autumn is here...

[confusedcyclist]

A brownish leaf just blew past my window...

There's brown leaves all down the pavement on my side of our street. It's a terrace, with no trees tall enough in the back of anyone's garden. Bloody wind...

We managed to hold it off for an entire month, but "she cannay take it no longer captain"

• Dark Mornings
• Dark Evenings
• General Leafyness

See you in 4 months.

There are a lot of leaves on the road this morning, and a lot are being blown around by the wind. Deep joy.

If you live in or visit areas where there are woods or forests it's a time to see some very good and varied colours on the trees!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Same here, a lovely day for a ride out. It's all going to change tomorrow.

It's turning here too but it's something I don't mind!
I love being on the MTB in the woods, with the leaves and gravel crunching beneath my wheels

I'm with you on that one. Just spent a pleasant few hours riding in Delamere Forest. Slight chill in the air, a carpet of crunchy leaves on the trails, squirrels and other various wildlife doing their thing. All so very peaceful and relaxing.

I've already had to rake my lawn ...the offending apple tree is being felled next week (although after I had to pick up all the bloody apples that have already fallen off)!

 

[postman]

Yes thing are settling down.Cut the lawn this morning,weeded the spare land,and cleared the strawberry patch of weeds.Everything seems to be bedding down for a break.So that might be the last of the gardening for a few months.

Summer's still fighting a stubborn rearguard action down here but it sounds like it's just about to change. Mind, the forecasters served notice on summer at the beginning of the week and it still hasn't moved on. Meanwhile, I've been practising my rear wheel tiddlywinks skills with conkers in the park.

At least all the Pro kits are tucked away for at least 4 months now.

I got in one last short-sleeved jersey ride this afternoon. Glorious sunshine, not a breath of wind and an average temperature of 66.8F.

I'll be sorry to see it go tomorrow.

Where's this heavy band of overnight rain they told us about?
