Good session. Well done.I've been out this afternoon. A little more wind here than the forecast had indicated, but good riding.
I wrote the other day about this great road I've found called Henry Cort Way. It carries just bikes and the occasional bus. Being a repurposed railway track it's arrow straight, two miles of smooth fast tarmac, unfortunately with three sets of lights. Plenty of bikes down there, some getting quite a wiggle on. It's no scenic route, but it's a fun ride.
I got stuck in today to work on my weight and fitness. I've been up and down it eight times in succession making 32 miles plus a few more getting there and back. This is by far my longest ride in 30 years or so. I'll tell you how I am tomorrow
Sun bathing done. @welsh dragon I will pm you a selfie.
A nice chill day really.

I must be getting gaga. Got a mixed bag of meat stuff from the local estate highland cattle herd. Large frozen packs. Sausage links in a large lump and I let them thaw out and then today put them all to cook in the remoska cooker before refreezing most of them. I carefully counted 10 into the cooker but when I came to take them out there were only 9. This was lunch time so I was still sober. Doh.

Just one question.
Given the weather, why did you go on a sunbed?

Thanks but no thanks. I think I'll pass.
Its a plastic bed in the sun = sun bed

For some reason I'd always thought he lived in Oxfordshire. Didcot in fact. Absolutely bizarre and no idea why I thought this!

Thanks Ian ... kind of you. Below is a shot of Henry Cort Way. Not much to see, but no cars, no pedstrians, just bikes and the occasional bus. It's arrow straight, a great surface and windbreaks to each side. It's good fun.

Space launch tonight!
As a child I used to watch the Sky at Night with Patrick Moor. Watched the first moon landing and have been a bit of a Sci Fi aficionado all my life.
Watching the Space X rockets landing next to each other was jaw dropping, and watching a live HD Video stream from a rocket as it's climbing into orbit is quite surreal.
I'll be glued to the screen, figures crossed that the weather is kind and the launch goes ahead. 🚀🚀🚀

That's a really interesting thoroughfare. Seen and ridden on plenty of repurposed railway lines, but not one like that. 👍

I've had an email from the BBC with the subject line:
"How might the universe end?"
I'm inclined to reply suggesting they look out the window, watch their own news broadcasts and they'll get a bloody good idea right now!!!!?
