And there you go.
Todays rides completes 15 calendar years of the Imperial Century a Month challenge.
100 miles on the dot for a ride through the Kent lanes to Ashford and back. Out early morning in the dark and 2° temperatures, though it didn't feel that cold. Sunny blue skies and low sun for the morning, starting to cloud over for the return. Temperatures never getting above 11° all day and a bit of a cheeky headwind for the return, but nothing to really moan about.
So, scores on the doors.

I saw a 20ft inflateable snowman today, no pics sorry, those inflatables just give me weird vibes I dont know why, Im like nope not stopping here :stop:

but really happy with my two rides over the weekend,lovely weather, bit breezy today, but both days with lots of blue sky & lovely sunsets & not too cold, though it was one of those weird I still feel really cold, but I was boil in the bag cooking rides today, but that maybe due to whatever weird cold Ive got thats affecting my voice & making me feel not so great, to the point I wasnt even sure if I could or should ride this weekend, but it didnt seem to be affecting my riding, and overall managed to hit 110kms.

only downsides were, everyone seemed really miserable out yesterday, even other riders, didnt get a single wave back, and drivers were being insane, like Im on a single country lane and have a flatbed truck doing 40mph+ towards me, the road is covered in mud and slime and Im like please slow down or give me some space before I launch myself into a ditch to escape, they did neither though I managed to slew into some space just in time.

whereas today barely a soul out there, which was nice, peaceful and quiet, though I did end up meeting one of those festive tractor light parades on the way home, which was kind of fun to watch at least, even if it then really screwed up the traffic afterwards.
