............and I am going to whinge about the wind tomorrow. Far too strong for me to wobble around in! Had a couple of little wobbles on exposed sections this morning and tomorrow is to be stronger so not risking it.

looks like the worst of the wind has been and gone through here today.... forecast for tomorrow is now down 13-15mph from the 20mph today... not sure what the gusts were upto but the sweet chestnut tree was happily throwing me huge sweet chestnuts earlier. came home with a huge pocket full (shelled of course!)

Tuesday is looking a wee bit interesting mind you....

Wow I got a p.b.

Its set to be windy here from the forecast, but its difficult to tell at the moment.

just the one?

just the one?

Just the one, the first all week I think mind you most rides have been pretty local and done to death.
My week runs Sun-Sat so it's the end of my week

still its a much better average than I have ever made
and you got a cup (3rd PR) on Friday as well

 

[Nigelnaturist]

only because three people have recorded it, how long do you think that will last, since i follow a few around here and they follow me. some are pretty quick, mind you so is the guy in first place, the 3rd place only because there was no traffic or train when I left the hospital.

@SatNavSaysStraightOn what do you mean average

your average speed (according to strava) was 25.1kph (sorry I am still working in metric...). I'm usually over the moon to get an average of 22.x kph...

 

[Nigelnaturist]

@SatNavSaysStraightOn it's ok, I work in both, one gps on metric the other imperial, (let you work out which is which ) well its faster than I have been of late, but not as fast as I was Oct last year, mind you its only 0.x of a mile an hour difference, not posting any comparison charts

Still out of action due to injury - Hopefully be able to get back on the bike in the next couple of weeks,

It's been some time since I've seen one of your rides on Strava. Hope to see you back in action soon.

Bad cold, no ride this weekend

 

[SpokeyDokey]

Bad cold, no ride this weekend

Whinge alert.

Ditto; not sure if it is proper bad or just man-bad. Drippy nose, all joints aching and gummy eyes. Blah, blah, blah...

Hope you get well soon and hope I do too...sniffle, sniffle.

To all you healthy non-drippers: have a great ride today and watch that wind!
