Too many baked beans last night?

I've never seen them on sale here.

Having spent yesterday in an aviation museum, looking at a Lancaster bomber, plus a bubble car museum today I'm heading to a vintage car speed trials event.

Not one for museums but a vintage car speed trial - that's more like it

I'm thinking of going illegal
Have an old bike in the shed. I've noticed that for a 100 squid I can get a 2 stroke motor kit.
That would extend my range and speed.
Around here no-one seems to notice 40 mph e bikes going wheelies down the road.

Then it gets complicated I need to change the crank to single and have no idea about how or what to get.

To be continued.

Good morning from Suffolk where it's been almost continual sunshine so far.

Coffee has been had while listening to the radio and finishing off a pack of dark chocolate HobNobs.

Today is planned to be a quiet one. Sunday is an away day in Nottingham with no time to eat when I get there, so I need to go shopping for something to have when I finally get to the hotel along with some travel snacks. The overnight bag also needs to be sorted, but that will have to wait until I've got the food to see if I can get everything into the smaller one or not. That should leave the afternoon free for the F1 sprint race (live or on catch-up), some deck chair lounging and possibly a short walk.

Have a happy Independence Day, @rockyroller

All the other Cyclechatters, sorry about all that.....

At the moment I can't help thinking we got the better end of the deal...

Good Morning everyone.

Have had a very busy couple of weeks.

Mrs TyT's dog has died - she is very sad. Dog was 13 yrs old. A shitzu.

I am not really a dog lover but she was a nice little dog and I miss her too

I've never seen them on sale here.

An opening in the market for someone! Baked beans on toast takeaways!

Now have some of my grandchildren staying over. We had a load of cockle shells spilled on the lawn. I told them they could have 20p for each one they collected up.

I have rather miscalculated and have been presented with a bill of over £100.

They are not in the mood to negotiate - ouch!!

I was having a bit of a moan on another site about cycling clothing not having enough pockets. I have an old Aldi jacket which has 3 zip pockets, One on the arm and 2 on the side. I found these handy for carrying my glasses, wallet and phone. I don't trust the pockets on the back of lycra tops especially if they don't have zips.
I want a Swiss Army Knife of cycling jackets!
