Thanks team. At least I shall be chuckling while I'm at deaths door.

Good morning happy campers. Hope your feeling better Mr Drago. . I was looking at that fish pie on another thread. I could never eat anything that looks at me.

Do you have to take the eyes out of potatoes?

No. I am very brave where they are concerned.

 

[Drago]

Feeling OK, but then I did yesterday when the day started. Just gonna chill.

I am going to fit a pair of stabilisers to the bike and venture out for 30 minutes at some point today, I will keep you all updated of course.

Walking doggie to the beach and then walking down to the village for Sunday lunch.
Should get about 6 miles in altogether. Was out on the bike yesterday, not pushing hard and did a steady 25 miles and 1100ft of climbing. Averaged 13.3mph on my new Dawes Clubman. I'm well pleased with it.

I feel old!

Just dropped my 13yo off for a group ride with other clubs and I'm not well enough to join them yet. More (younger) riders knew him than me.

Not retired but I might as well be.

Out last night with mate and his wife, the first time since his off in December and subsequent hip replacement, it hasn't diminished his capacity for beer drinking, I feel rough this morning.

First serious ride of 2017 - I refuse to go out when it’s icy, snow or dangerously high winds all of which have impacted our Sunday rides this year. I have one friend with a broken jaw, another with broken collarbone which shows the wisdom of my decisions.

56 miles, 4737 feet of climbing with an average of 13. Not too shabby but reckon I’ve lost 2-3mph on the big climbs.

Blimey. Am i mistaken or is it a really long time since you were on a bike. 2017?
