I've been watching the TdF and was thinking that due to the heat the riders that go back for drinks for their team members should be carrying ices instead.

Today we went to Asbyrgi, I got stupidly emotional because it a beautiful place and the elves are particularly strong there, but most of because this happened a few years ago.

I did wilt!!

Does anyone else do lacklustre riding between bits of shade when it's like this? I find it's too much effort to go fast.... unfortunately I have Pilates and Zumba tonight.... I'm going to be bright red!

I have been keeping cool by sitting in the shade of a very large berberis shrub.

If I was thinking about doing exercise today, it would be Tai Chi out doors. Or just Tea out of doors, a scone with jam and fresh cream.

I have not overheated once on the bike recently

I have not overheated once on the bike recently

Now I wonder why that is

I think @Speicher has the right idea for exercise!​

 

[Speicher]

Yes, lifting the cup of tea, and eating a scone loaded with jam and cream takes co-ordination and dexterity.

I must put thick double cream on my shopping list.

A pleasent 15C here with a light breeze. Why are you lot whinging about it being sunny?

For those who aren't interested, we are off horse riding this evening across the meadows and beaches.

That sounds good. I think one afternoon in Iceland, I had the choice of horse riding or a flight in a four-seater plane over some of the less accessible parts of the interior. I chose the flight in the small plane.

The horses are supposed to be very gentle, so I would like to know how it goes.

It has only taken three days but my washing has finally dried.
