Wow, the Vuelta coverage on Quest last night was stunning... You would never think that a time trial in Spain would have so many interesting Polish customs guards searching cars for imported illegal drugs!
Let's hope that the person who clicks the mouse clicks on the right icon next time...

I was with another rider at a cafe in Whalley once. We had ridden there by a hilly indirect route of about 45 kms rather than the more obvious easy 25 km route. The woman who served us asked how far we had ridden. She was very impressed by that, but totally gobsmacked when we told her that we had another 120 km to go...

Got wet on my ride today
That's 2 days running - Met Office really need to sharpen up on their time estimates!!!
Also managed to catch the back on my shin on the studs on the flat pedals while trying to get through one of the anti-motorbike barriers
WHen I got home I found 2 significant scrapes and bloody bits
must add some anti septic cream to the shopping list!!!

This site can sometimes be useful to track approaching rain.

Actually I use Windy as it is prettier - but same idea
Today the rain sort of materialised from nowhere (OK actually due to changes in humidity and temperature and pressure and stuff). Normally I can see the rain moving in from Wales or from the Irish Sea and can predict how long I have got - today there was almost nothing and when I got home there was rain for miles around
But the radar sites are very useful - and they show lightning as well - which is interesting in a storm!

Right.
All the bedding has been washed and dried.
Do you ever get one of those days when the bl**dy base sheet refuses to fit. Turn it round....no. turn it again....no. .must have done that 4 times before I beat it into submission
.
In other news......chicken is done, spuds are roasting, veg is waiting to be steamed, gravy is almost ready.........BAD NEWS is we have no Yorkshire puds

I often have that problem, our hospital bed mattress is a smidge longer than a standard mattress, standard fitted sheets vary a little bit in size so I've got some sheets that only just fit but need persuading.

Started young, and still going.
Where's the meat then? and what is that pale stuff?
