^ Cracking short film Gary, makes you sad and happy at the same time, i reckon i would have drunk that water back then! - well not the bit downstream of the cows of course.
It's still very clear and cold! I had a swim in it the other year (2022) during one of the mini heatwaves.
30 miles out in the sunshine today. Don't laugh at my gentleman's extension...I have a neck issue....
Out today, 65 miles in the dales and the forest of bowland. Cold but good to get a decent fine loop in. Still wintry up high....
30 miles mtb off road today, icey cold wind but dry trails made for great riding. Good to get out.... Might get a chance tomorrow afternoon out on the winter ribble, if it's fine
about 20 miles in total unassisted. Try as I might, I couldn't get the bicycle in the shot with the little deer. Got the inevitable puncture and just managed to make it home before serious rain.
Get converted to tubeless chris, essential on mtb, once done, you'll never run tubes again. All my mtb's are tubeless, I've had loads of punctures but not taken a tyre off mid ride for years (since tubes). I've even converted one if my roadies tubeless. There's posts further back in this thread on how to.
Just ridden 47 miles, longest single ride probably since December. 247 miles behind my schedule for this years 6,000 km target. Will probably get the roadie out this week
I forgot to turn the strada thing on, but looks like about 23 miles. I only set out to do 10 miles and then got carried away. Along the Thames to Hampton Court then back via Esher and Cobham. Saw this fancy new fish and chip parlour in Esher I thought I might get a sit down but it's 20 quid for fish and chips now.
That looks like a moving pictures palace? Fish and Chips ain’t cheap that sounds about right for a sit in TBH. Do they serve battered chips there or plain? You’ve made me realise that I’m hungry, so cheers.
it's one of the few "Cinemas" i would go to now - in Esher. because of it's location, you never get swarmed/drowned in popcorn there.
Popcorn is compulsory for me half and half obviously and a large Cola. I may go and watch Dune 2 again just to eat popcorn.
... The fish and chip place had shut anyway, at 4 o'clock so I came home and had this instead for £1.60 marked down at Lidl and co-op. Sorry, I am merging this thread with "what's for din-dins? "Sorry again (chicken and chips)
M+S all the way here there Chicken Goujons are epic as are their Potato wedges. Any my evening meal is being served…,, Chicken Shawarma tonight.
