I'm with you there. Add in full breakfast with tattie scones and you have perfection. Oh, maybe just a crazy nice bike too.
Edit: just in case you think I'm being lazy. It's too wet to mow the back yard Or so I'm telling my wife.

I’m also working out of town at a hotel on Friday or I would offer to pick it up for you. The set up should be the same as long as you’re a short fat old guy.

What kind? I thought there could never be anything better than a new bike day but now I know a new bike and new dog day is the ultimate!

It was supposedly a lurcher but looks like it might be a belgian malanois

Ok so I'm jealous. Looks a very nice bike. And we all know a new bike is always faster than the old one.
Currently trying to work out if I sell 2 of my old bikes can I justify a new one. Looking at the new breed a ' Gravel' or whatever. Something I can ride on the road to my local forest then go on the tracks.

Gravel bikes will do 90% of what a Road bike will do on the road, assuming similar drive train setups, 2x11 or 2x12. But are capable of 125% or more of what a road bike will do on gravel. I have both.
They are horses for courses but it is mainly tyre width that separates them on the off road. 30mm and up for best gravel performance iirc from the ride reports and write ups I've read.
