A nice ride out in the sunny warm weather today. 18 miles from Barnet via Potters bar, Brookmans Park to Welham Green and then back through South Mimms, Ridge and home via cafe nero for coffee then the Mitre for an ale or three.

Decorating, shopping, dropped birthday pressies off to DIL, now I am just about to tidy the garage.

Shopping was done in Lincoln, I really have a serious dislike for that place, miserable grey place.

Lincolnshire is like. Northampronshire- the rural bits are nice, but the urban areas are toilets.

We're back home, and feeling suitably stuffed. It's been a lovely day, I hope it's as nice tomorrow when I'm out on my bike.
