I dunno, the walnuts I forage from the hedgerows are always very tasty.

Picked up 25 kilos last year. Not a good year this year unfortunately, I'll be lucky to get 5 kilos, I reckon...

When you say forage.... more like scrumping methinks seeing as Walnuts grow on trees not hedges

Nope, I really do mean forage. Trees growing in the hedgerows are fair game for anyone. Same applies to apples and filberts. (The advantage of living out in the boonies.)

I wouldn't help myself to anything that belongs to someone else.

In route-checking for Saturday's 200km audax the organiser's left off 4 key consecutive route instructions. The result? There may be some lost participants in rural Lincolnshire.

Oh, and the gpx file puts you down a nasty A-road rather than the instructions which take a nicer, quiet route to Gainsborough.

Yes, I checked it too and the route sheet and GPX don't match. Picked the best of both and tweaked accordingly. Depending which weather website you look at, tomorrow may be interesting ☔⛈⚡

That means you won't be lost somewhere in rural Lincolnshire

Looks like it'll be showers all day. Just deciding whether to go full wet and steady or lightweight and fast. Probably the former, although I'll double-check tomorrow morning's weather forecast, which means top tube bag, extra battery back, etc.. I'll be in a Ravensthorpe CC jersey.

Ah yes, but where? Hence the need for a map.

Just keep an eye open for the teddy bears. Then follow them.

Lovely supper of portobello mushrooms stuffed with cream cheese, herbs and garlic, and topped with a parmesan crumb topping, wholegrain cous cous with sundried tomatoes and oregano, and a medley of roasted veggies (onions, courgettes and peppers).

Now it's time for a

Maps arrived. No obvious source of cake, but lots of ideas for bike tours.

Did you?

I did. Twenty-five miles on the Brompton

Fair play to you.

I had a look at the "take a book, leave a book" free library thing while I was out. It seems that someone has donated about a hundred Mills and Boons.
