The Retirement Thread

[Dave7]

I have a very dirty bike, along with some rather filthy wet cycle clothing, I also have a huge smile on my face, I enjoyed that ride. Only 18 miles but it will do for today, back to nursing duties for the rest of the day.

What** (approx) did you wear for your ride?
Must confess I have little in the way of wet weather gear as I try not to ride in poor weather.
** not interested in the underwear.....just the outer stuff

Quite pleasant on the beach this morning.

Off for a stroll down to my local now.

Long bibbed bottoms, waterproof overshoes and a waterproof top couple of thin layers underneath, all cycle clothing, not really into wet ridng since I stopped racing 20 years back, but sometimes it needs doing.

Phew! that was lucky, I offered the patient all sort of delightful delicacies for Lunch and all they fancy is a beef burgher in a bun, now just got to drag the BBQ into the kitchen and get it fired up.

Good afternoon all, the first ride of more than ten miles done today. Not the speediest of all time but a nice ride all the same. Plenty of standing water about so spent much of the ride dodging big puddles.

 

[Dirk]

Very nice!
I could stay here all day.

Looks like you're using the "single finger salute".

Can you not just grill them or even fry them??

How do you do that? No need to worry now as I have found the charcoal.

You'll find out if the batteries in your smoke detectors are any good shortly

 

[Dave7]

How do you do that?

Has gas or electric not got to Lincoln yet?
We have an electric grill so I turn it on, bung em in and wait till a) they turn black or b) the smoke alarm goes off.

Right, the bbq is glowing nicely.

41/2 hours later, the patient will be starved.
