The Retirement Thread

[welsh dragon]

Morning. Exciting day today. It's bin day, and my new pillow will be here as well. I can hardly contain myself. This retirement malarkey is more than I can handle

Stay safe peeps

Weather is good here in Poshshire, and somit should be for the council tax I pay. Will do the garden and continue demolishing the garage roof.

Morning all. 1st of July and my boy's official birthday (he's a rescue, so no idea when it's really his birthday so like the queen he gets an official one)

Glad I haven't got covid, but this chest and throat Infection sucks, and everything hurts.

Got my pension man around today to try and explain the LTA again!

Everything ready for our ride. Just having a quick coffee before setting off...

I've been for a bimble this morning, my Claybrook Magna loop with a minor diversion for a road closure, they were just in the process of closing the road as I rode out and I worked my way through, but on my way back I changed my route to avoid it, 32 miles ridden, and if anyone spots my cycling legs can they point them back this way please, it felt like I was riding through cotton wool this morning, no pace, no power, just like the last few miles of a longer ride where you've bonked and are trying to crawl home. It wasn't a bad morning for a bike ride, cloudy and still, a bit fresh at the start but warming up nicely as the ride went on. I can't say I enjoyed that but it was nice to get out, I usually ride on a Tuesday when a friend is with my Good Lady but I didn't fancy it then so postponed the ride till today.

Well done Dave. I have also bimbled, even less distance. Just 26 miles for me but it is starting to get really warm again so felt plenty to be honest. My speed was up a bit but I was working reasonably hard.

Freshen up now and have lunch and then just chill watching the cycling I think. Unless the breeze picks up, the house is going to get warm.

 

[Flick of the Elbow]

absolutely blazing now. Temp up to 18.6. Been out for a potter, 30 miles mixed road and easy gravel. Very pleasant.

Wow. Another great finish! I won’t say who for those not watched yet.
