Seems this morning's sun in universal :becool:

Out for the first time this year in just the long-sleeved base layer having woken early again but actually managed about 8hrs for once as I got to sleep early last night.

A nice mosey in with little to report; a few low-rent knobheads but nothing that threatened to end my life... which was nice.

As usual the sun made everything great; smiles from a few ladies, greetings exchanged with my new sour-faced covered-market best mate, had exact change for my breakfast in the butchers - which incidentally were utterly sublime again this morning:

The tow path was unsurprisingly pleasant too and while taking photos I had a nice exchange with a chap who apparently walks it every day and expressed similar gratitude for being lucky enough to live in such a nice part of the world :smile:

As long as I breathe, I attack.
had to go back in for my winter gloves this morning and wore the windproof + toe covers as it was about 5 c . Coming home it was a lot warmer so i was in summer gear but i got a flat caused by a half inch metal splinter so i had to stop and change the tube but when i put the wheel back in the rear brake was rubbing even though i backed off the pad adjustment and loosened the barrel adjuster fully but it was like riding uphill all the way home .:wacko:
