First 'ride' for a month, I need a lie down after doing 3 miles

Just in case you're not sure it's my bike, this should be proof enough

You don't have to say you got lost just to go in a pub

You know when you go to do something on the internet and what should be a 5 minute job turns into 2 hours and hundreds of web pages later well today has been a day of starting a 5 minute job and then finding another one within it that needs doing as well. It's like Russian dolls.

It's my own fault as i really haven@t been ar**d to do stuff at home since i have returned from the tour, i quite got used to practicing for retirement and doing frivolous things like riding my bike all day and to cap it all the sun has come out now and i knee deep in housework

An example of some of the off main road cycling we did... 58 km of nutty cycle route planning plus the 35km getting to my mates. Ain't going to get the century finished as in the pub... Surprisingly

Lots of fun on two steel Road bikes with racing tubular tyres.

Blimey, you did well with those tyres, not surprised you need another drink.

Much fettling to be done at a later date i should think after the rain you have had.

Ok where is that? Though it does look a little muddy for my liking!

That's when you come through blase castle and go along the river to sea mills. You end up on falcondale Road and you can go up over the downs or down to sea mills and back along the port way which we did as it's all downhill. It wasn't too muddy even after yesterday's monsoon.

Some of the urban riding we did also... Like I say a nutty route over the back alleys and paths if greater Bristol. My riding buddy taking pictures
