Collected granddaughter from school yesterday and she was so proud of herself 😎❤️

I considered Bikeabikity as a trainer, but im not sure I could be sufficiently de-programmed from my professional cycle teaining to make it work. Teaching kids to use a bike as a weapon might not go down well.

Very well done to your granddaughter Tenkers. Its good to see the young uns still wanting to ride. Sadly Mini D #4 is autistic and freaks when sat astride a bike so I've never pressed the point with her. Oddly, when I used to meet her from school, she was fascinated with my folder and always insisted on pushing it home. Kids, eh?

Mini D's #1 and #3 still have bikes and still ride for pleasure, and I gifted Mini D #3's fiancee an MTB so they could go on rides together.

There's a Red Kite circling overhead, ergo no birds on the feeder at the moment.
The regular two doves and herd of goldfinches are hiding in the undergrowth somewhere.

Walkies walked 🦮
Only a couple of miles this morning as I'm swimming later.

We get a lot of red kites up her eon the ridge Pete. So much so that some of the street names are birds of prey, Merlin Close, Red Kite Drive, etc.

We often get a Red Kite or two over Barnet.
Yesterday one was doing a top gun flypast, but was being mobbed by a load of crows. It didn't look to bothered.
