Tandem on the home made roof rack ready to head down to the flatlands in the Vale of York.
Woke up to flipping rain here but it's going to clear up. Looking at the weather forecast it seems West is best so after a night in Northallerton I think we'll head over to the forest of Bowland or the Lakes for a couple of days.
One of the joys of (semi) retirement is that we can be flexible and change plans at a moments notice but I guess you lot already know that

Canals and Rivers today, TPT from Howden to Selby and a few Bridleways. and canal side riding, rough in places.

Eyup @Afnug. Can recommend the caff in West Park at Goole next time you're over that way. It's a charity subsidised sort of thing so it's good value and the portions are hearty. Must declare an interest as my sister works there. She bakes a cracking cake.

Beautiful morning here in sunny pensioner caravan land.
Bit of a heavy night catching up with mates last night, so a lazy get up this morning. Riding out towards Bovington this morning, pub lunch somewhere and a wobble back. Barbeque on the go tonight.

Stratford is a nice town. A friend of mine used to live in Welford on Avon, not far from there.

I am on the hunt for a waspy fecker. I sprayed it with my killer spray. I can't hear it now. I think it must have crashed and burned in the house somewhere. I will have to hunt it down to make sure it is dead.

Was pleased to get a 10 miler in today. Yesterday me and Mrs Dave had a deliberate chill day......starting in the garden with vodka & orange at.......
........ wait for it......
09:15
Had a few hours sunbathing then did a few jobs........then back out at 17:00 for a few more drinkypoos.
This morning......slightly the worse but I bravely got the 10 miles in.
Sun was very hot though the wind was surprisingly strong and cool.

Stratford is a bit too touristy for me, We go down occasionally for a walk round, we try to pick our days, if you pick the wrong day you'll never get in, and if you do get in you my not be able to find somewhere to park. Both Stratford and welford are places I sometimes cycle through.
