Fabulous views.

Great time this morning as we finally got the balloon flight. An early start as we met at 0545 at Graveley near Stevenage . Once the balloon was inflated we took off and flew over Letchworth, Stotfold and then towards Henlow until the wind changed direction and it took us eastward. We landed in a farmers field in Edworth, quite gently without tipping over. A very good trip. Champagne, coissaints and coffee for breakfast whilst we packed up the balloon and waited for the mini bus to pick us up.

That does sound good, I used to see them a lot drifting over Stevenage when I worked there,


In other news,,,, Are you going to use your new Condor next Sunday week for the Prudential ride? I'm toying with using the brommie.

When it is raining, it's atmospheric, not just hissing down.

The new Condor has not been built yet. I am hoping it will be ready for the pru. ride.

Having not ridden this morning as I was feeling rough I now feel bad because I didn't ride, not helped by seeing pictures on here by people who did ride. I recon I must be getting better.

Don't feel bad. You do so much cycling normally.

Morning all. @screenman can I pick your vast knowledge of the motor trade. What's the best way to sell a cherished number plate, I've got one which I've been trying to sell for the last year with no luck, I've tried eBay, Facebook and Gumtree.
