28 mile bimble for me today. Fab weather here.

Unfortunately, after 3 pints of GTR2, the lawn mowing can go feck itself........

I cut the grass yesterday, also extended one of my flower beds and moved a few plants. My back wasn't happy this morning, but I still got a little 46 miler in, met friends at Hatton Locks, my backs still not happy. My good Lady is a bit below par today as well.

Did 48 miles up in Northumberland once I'd escaped w*rk. Had planned to do more but the six or seven miles from work to the jumping off point took flipping ages. Should have checked the traffic reports. Drove off site directly onto the back of a two mile tailback.

Lovely ride once I got going with hardly any traffic and a hint of autumn in the air. A few farmers thrashing hedges already. Mebbe because they've got the corn in early? Anyway, watch out for those thorns.

What are you doing getting up so early?

Hello everyone. It's dawned what looks like an excellent day for riding which is just as well as I'm riding to Grasmere for the club weekend away. On Saturday I'll ride the Cumbrian Cracker route and Sunday will either scrounge a lift or ride home.

Apparently it's the Grasmere Guzzler beer festival this weekend. Unfortunate.

Oh yes, passed the MOT yesterday with flying colours. In particular a cholesterol ratio of 1.9 when 2 is considered low. Kidney function rating increased from 62 to 78, 18% . At 64 quite impressive.

Well done. Good news indeed.

Good morning everyone. Very chilly here at the moment, but it is going to warm up later. A slow bimble will be in order when that happens.

Morning all a few things to do early on such as dog walking and feeding the 3, 5 week old kittens that we are fostering for a while. Then my son is picking me up and we are going for a supercar driving experience at an airfield near Guildford . I am not a petrolhead at all but the thought of driving 5 powerful cars and then 5 laps with a qualified racing driver at race pace does kind of get the juices flowing .

Well done, I suspect that if I had an MOT I'd fail miserably.

Morning all. Sounds like the 2 Paul's are going to have a great day.
Funny I've never been excited about picking a new pair of glasses up, but today I am.

I think this cold is passing. It was never that bad, but the constant minor headache and bungedupiness was becoming tiresome.
