Christmas day ride?

[n3rdy]

So how many of us are riding in the morning, i am going to get out about 8-30 am before they all get up, weather forecast looks good, 20 mile route will do me nice, get back have a nice breakfast then open some pressies, sounds good to me.

Just got all my gear ready for an early start. Turns out I'll have a couple of hours so a few more miles than I'd thought :-)

Won't be going out Christmas day but will be boxing day to the in laws, about 68 miles to ruskington near Sleaford have some thing to eat and drive home, weather is perfect as well with a tail wind

Have scrubbed the idea of cycling the 50 miles to xmas dinner at brothers, due to having too much to carry.
IF this wind dies down, I might get up and go out for a couple of hours before heading further afield - in the car.

Edit....... The wind has died down, but still a strong breeze. Frequent showers too, so the ride idea is scuppered. Need to be showered and out of the house by about 1pm anyway. Next opportunity won't be until next Tuesday at best. Away from home tomorrow, storm due friday, work saturday, sunday and monday.

As long as the wind dies down I'll be cycling 55km to my brother's for xmas lunch. For being allowed to escape 1 and half hours early I'll be the nominated driver and have to drive back.

Now I know it's only a couple of miles but I'm off to the pub for a quicky lunchtime.

Does that count?

I've been for my Christmas Day ride, 20 miles around Leicester. Wonderfully quiet, if only every day was like this morning.

No chance for me either, 3 year old and the whole family would linch me. Booked in for a long one boxing day morning though, followed by boozy lunch

Aye, you are a bit young to be going out cycling on your own. Not sure that your parents should be allowing you booze at lunchtime either .

Right, I'm off out for a quick 20 miles or so while my wife goes for a run. Weather looks great here.
Then it's home for pressies and feasting

Merry Christmas all!

Merry Xmas!
Went out with intention of going to Trafalgar Sq and take a picture of the tree there at dawn.
Got as far as South Kensington when the P fairy struck .
Fingers frozen, took ages to get done. Had enough, turned back and came home
Solution, I need a new bike
