Lucky escape.......Prestatyn!!Set off to go to Prestatyn and back, about 30 miles all round, but 4 miles into my ride, got a phone call requesting me to go to school to cover 3 lessons. So turned back and did not even have time to have a shower.
Your ride today.... (part 1)

I have not had a lot of time for riding since moving house, I've been painting 200 feet of skirting, three coats amongst other things. A utility ride this evening, just about 6 miles to the shops, though it was a faff to get out, the skirting was in the way of the Whyte Coniston, my Garmin wouldn't boot up, I couldn't find the shoes, and my rear light would not fit into the tab on the tool pack. (it feckin' bounced off quick enough though over a bump! Feckin' thing! I also wanted to fit and try out my new Cree lights what I did buy from the bay of E with some birthday money. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Solarstorm-6200Lm-X3-CREE-XML-U2-3-LED-Bicycle-Bike-HeadLight-Light-Flashlight/271425057684?_trksid=p3693.c100102.m2452&_trkparms=aid%3D333008%26algo%3DRIC.MBE%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D20140212121249%26meid%3D2e4da32a33cb4a9290cc71ef0f1aa4bf%26pid%3D100102%26prg%3D20140212121249%26rkt%3D4%26
The ride itself was uneventful but the Cree lights were FAB, very bright even on the lowest setting, a bit taters out though.
Taken with a phone of I.

You appear to have received likes for you having to paint two hundred yards of skirting board. Not very nice

I need all the likes I can get, I'll take em from anyone for anything, anytime. Even from you, I ain't proud.

Lol, I noticed that, but I thought it churlish to mention it.
I was bigging him up!

Headed to Bitton along the old railway track. Then thru Oldland Common, Pucklecurch then stopped off at my Dads place in Chipping Sodbury for a coffee. Back via Coalpit Heath & Kendleshire.
Then straight into shower to remove lots of road grime 8-|

60 ish miles with a group of fast German riders...to DipKarpaz and back in Northern Cyprus. I am left wishing I was smaller, lighter and understood the attraction of having to win the silly game that is Strava. ZZZZzzzzz
On the plus side my German held up all the way around....

25 miles and a face-battering from the wind for the first half. This is one of my regular routes that takes me through the villages of Bucklesham, Kirton, the Trimleys and the town of Felixstowe before a straight-down-the-barrel return along the old A-road to Ipswich. (With a slight detour through Nacton village.)
A similar pic overlooking Felixstowe to one I've posted before, but with the strength of the wind, I'm surprised it actually seems somewhat in focus.

You just about had enough breath left for "Bitte, gehen sie langsamer!" (or something like that)?
