I got back a little while ago, rode over to Brandon marsh and the Badgers Tearoom by the scenic route, my last ride of 2019, 45 miles ridden, bringing my total for the year to 5012 miles, so its been a decent years cycling. The weather forecast today was for bright sunshine but I didn't see any sun till I was on the outskirts of Coventry on the way back, most of the ride out was ridden in fog that was quite thick in places, it cleared up on the way back and was just grey and dull till I was almost home.

It turned out to be a great day for riding. 14 turned out for the pensioners' ride, 11 of them work so we made them feel welcome - after all we need them to keep paying taxes. 
60 miles @16avg with constant references to the state of my legs. Tried a shift on the front but it was tough.
Mrs P has taken to her bed. The cold must be worse. I may take up barrier nursing 😷
Tea, Christmas cake and then a quick bike wash.
