I seem to recall a certain Mr Chorley Paul telling me that a married man should understand that.

Morning. Damp roads here but a bit milder. Trying to muster some enthusiasm for a bimble after the school run is over later. Might be the last chance for the rest of the week as it’s to be windy most days with a fair bit of rain.

Crikey, look at the end of the month! 
Time to take up paragliding Mo, you could take advantage of all that wind and take some even more stunning photos while you’re up there 😁

Morning folks 
bit grey out but still very mild- havent had any frost here yet. Contemplating my ride today which is about 27 miles, the only thing that bothers me is getting stranded 
theres no phone signal in the hills and if i had a mechanical or pulled a muscle or something then im ****ed ah well i guess some risk makes me feel ive got a pulse!
Quite fancy buying a cottage one day out in the middle of no-where, might get snowed in for a couple of weeks a year but thats ok

I’ve nobody to phone either. Often don’t even bother taking the phone. Have to admit it is maybe one of the reasons I’m not so keen on venturing too far now.Morning folks

Thanks but no thanks. I think I'll pass.
Morning. The Pfizer booster has effected me more than I thought it would. My arm is still sore and I feel off somehow. Not sure how to describe it. 
Stay safe peeps

I always wave at the local farmers and hope that they might take mercy on me in the event of getting stranded! and sling me and the bike in the back of their pickup
If i have a heart attack and get eaten by the local wildlife my bleached skeleton might become a local landmark 'Cyclist folly hill'

I was most active cycling wise before we had mobile phones, club rides, reliability trails, charity rides, audax etc, we never worried about being out of contact, a well maintained bike rarely breaks down, carry a few tools to deal with a breakdown, chain tool, pump, a spare tube and a puncture outfit, that will cover most of the issues, over the years I've used my tool kit to get other people home more that to get me home. A tyre boot is also a good Idea, a small piece of old tyre that you can put between tyre and tube if you get a split sidewall.
