Ok ride done and am still alive.
Took it slow and only did 12 miles ( back in the day my commute to work was nearly that long 😂 ), but still I have to start somewhere.
Great to be back on the bike and legs don’t feel to bad. I must start going out once or twice a week every week . Once I start doing that, then I will treat myself to that bacon batch 😀😀.
I even took my best bike out . I feel sorry for it really , it really deserves a better owner than me.😂

Excellent news. Keep it going, a lovely bike like that should be ridden.

It was the Silverdale Ride today, a big favourite of mine, 117 mile loop to the village on Morecambe Bay. I took my Kinesis resplendent in its' 35mm gravel tyres. The last 20 miles were hard and it didn't matter how much I ate I was constantly hungry - that hasn't happened in years.

My wife bought it for me for my 50th birthday. Still totally love it . I have another road bike a Rose RS which is lighter and has a better group set ( bought second hand from a man that only rode it once )but it just doesn’t give me the same joy. Nothing rides like a ti bike . 😀

Morning. Didn’t sleep much last night as I was too warm. It looks fresher out at the moment so I’ll get out for a wander soon. The excitement for today is a hair cut at 12.30 then I’ll watch the ladies tennis final. I’ll be rooting for Jabeur.

For £200 that's a bargain. Not easy to access to the top and doesn't look like there's much space to drop it in to.
You sure he isn't planning to remove the bottom half? 🤔
