You have a chest just for your tool? I know you like to boast but that is taking it too far

I have a chest for storing it, and a hammock for transport purposes.

More like scary than entertaining. Built up areas are best avoided if possible, however there are times when it has to be done.

The route I did today specifically avoided built up areas as far as possible. The plan was to stay away from the city and the A167. Did lots of traffic free lanes but as you say, sometimes built up areas can't be avoided. Like @dave r I commuted by bike for a long time so I'm relaxed in heavy traffic but prefer to avoid it now I can.

Beautiful morning here, a good day for a ride.

Van is 90% loaded, fridge down to correct temperature of the mains so we're almost ready for our next trip. We're off to Keswick for three nights and this time we're taking the mutt. I'm setting off on the bike at 8 o'clock and Mrs. jg will set off in the van at 11 and try to catch me.

There's a slight headwind and three big climbs to tackle so she's got to be favourite. If she hasn't caught me by Penrith I'll stop and wait for her as they have a Booth's supermarket who have an extensive range of beers and a luscious selection of deli items.

Later taters.
