I couldn't stand being teased by this weather any longer so I grabbed my bike and and went out for a cycle ride. I was a bit puffed out so I had 4 stops on the way out. On the way back I challenged myself to see how far I could freewheel back. I made it all the way back to the A350 where I had to climb up over the footbridge. I did 7miles.
Yay! Well done :smile:

Like Illaveago, I couldn't stand sitting in front of the computer any longer, and grabbed my bike


The presence of Pink Floyd in the Mundane thread tears me somewhat. On one hand, you can't have too much Pink Floyd in any thread, albeit, it's not easy to see how they fit into a thread on Charge saddles or the best winter gloves. On the other hand..........'Pink Floyd'.........'mundane'........ Those are words that should never appear in a sentence together.
 
Tim Peake is asking if people have got what it takes to go into space! Sadly none of my bikes are fast enough.

Then I had a thought! If you had a fixed wheel cycle you could experience the effects of increased G on the body by creating your own centifuge effect by starting off at the top of a steep hill standing on the pedals and letting the bike roll down the slope. Care should be taken not to go too fast! :whistle:

We appear to have a pet mouse today I was just sitting here and there was an almighty clatter from the Conservatory, plants everywhere on the floor and Smokey scarpering from the devastation. Moved the bikes/Trike to pick everything up and a little grey streak shot out and cowered in the corner unfortunately it was impossible for me to get to that corner for a 'catch and release' so the French doors are open to the outside to see if it can make an escape
bit chilly sat here now. :cold:
