Well another enjoyable 13 miles and this time accompanied by quite a bit of blue sky and sunshine......

First cuppa brewing
Damp underfoot and not raining but gradually the greyness is returning.

First cuppa went down well

I'm off to the first circuit race of the season in Yorkshire, which is at Wakefield this afternoon.

Good morning from a fourth floor hotel room in partially sunny Lincoln.

Coffee has been had and after a shower I'm off into town for breakfast and more coffee followed by trains from here to Retford, Leeds and finally Harrogate where my 61st cake day will be celebrated with more beer & food.

Happy birthday @Jenkins

Please remember to leave the usual Yorkshire boundary tax upon your exit (cake will do ...)

Happy birthday @Jenkins, rain is scheduled to greet you after a sunny start.
Broke another Ikea Reko glass, now down 2 out of 6 so another trip there may be needed in the future. Afterall at 25p each difficult to better.
Tesco trek undertaken for clubcard reduced fruit juice and Nakd Bars plus a pack of their freefrom Belgium chocolate 2 bar Kit Kat equivalents at an eye watering 55p each.

Happy Harrogate Hanniversary, @Jenkins. I'm guessing you will not be availing yourself of Betty's Tearooms but may you find good cake and beer.

Happy birthday, @Jenkins !
Many happy returns of The Day!

 

[Jenkins]

Thanks all. A large breakfast and a couple of coffees have been had leaving enough time for a stroll along the river and Brayford Pool before heading to the train station.

No cake will be left in Yorkshire, it will be taken with me internally.

You will have to eat a fair bit, Yorkshire with its number of coffee shops got voted the capital of cake.

Still sunny!
3 out of 4 missing things found. Two pairs of scissors hiding under a pack of cleaning wipes and the coffee machines drip tray suddenly appeared in front of washing machine. How I had not seen it earlier is a mystery as I had loaded it with a stack of cycling bibs.
Missing still is the Co-op card, not a major issue as its on the app. Enquired in Waitrose if it had been found, thinking it may have dropped out of my wallet taking theirs out previously, but plainly no blue card was present amongst the vast collection of primarily their cards.

That sounds like quite an interesting challenge

As long as I don't have to pay

From the Harrogate Tap by the way, where the beer's not cheap but unlike last night I don't mind paying for quality. There may even be enough light later on for a stroll round The Stray before booking into the hotel.
