Wheelie! And you're not tyred either?Good morning
Working wheely good
If you'd set out in time, and in the right direction, you'd have a decent tailwind on the homeward leg/section. Maybe even uphill.Looking forward to the gale force winds later?I'll maybe give the
a miss.
Morning??

There's adverts for legs at the bottom of the page. Anyone want a spare set?
Those pictured are "touring legs".
Sprinting legs available I wonder.
The top*, it's touring Scotland. Having paid someone else to work out a route for me.
*Now Genuine Japanese Tea direct from China?

I did a set route for a visitor, advised on everything and made a point of highlighting that there were many hilly climbs en-route, they then mid way through wanted to visit Mull, I said VERY VERY HILLY and at the end he said the route was too hilly, I maybe read between the lines that it had been a 'thanks for nothing' gesture.. I had even sent route profiles, the was a prof at a Uni so he wasn't daft (or?)
Cue no more helping..

Did you charge for planning the route though?

Nope..
gratis..
the thing about 'doing' routes is that you know the distance you have to travel, I hate that, I did one the other day and it showed the map and at the bottom, the distance to go..
demoralising
even after I knew that was halfway done, it dragged.
Sometimes it is just better to wing it as you go.....

Apart from a few of my more local regular loops, I often just set out and decide when I get to the next junction how I'm feeling and what way I want to go. At least we are blessed with lots of little roads that criss/cross the country and makes it easier. I really need to try and explore a bit more though.Nope..

That's my normal..
I spend too much time looking at maps and TBH it's trying to remember where each turn should be, if no signpost, the one over Shieldhill would have been simple if I'd just gone to the Slamannan road but I wanted to explore another way, I'd only been up that way once before and couldn't picture the turn off which turned out to be a rough farm track for about 3/4 mile before a single tarmac road.
The roads are all new to me although on checking I've been out and about here since 2017.
This is when I wish I could drive and head into Fife, out Doune etc and just get the bike out.
I could just get dumped and make my way home

Oh. a question ..
In the original wordpress editor,
I could choose a size of an image to place into the post then when the image was placed into its position, I could click on it and allow full size to open in a new browser page, any idea of the present way of doing this?
Old lost Bob.
I just can't see any way...
