Here for rides.
I'm very pleased with the mean, moody, pained yet artful nature of that picture. Sheer fluke, can't take photo's to save my life.
Wish me luck though, getting my dressings changed at 14:00. There may be cussing.

It's a bit more complicated than that...
As a coda, we took the touring tandem out today and made it round the whole loop. 69 miles according to the bike computer (67 according to the GPS). 5 hours, 44 minutes of riding, 7 hours 54 minutes elapsed.
Since we were last up there, the footpath cut-through to the Waddesdon estate had overgrown rather a lot, so we cut down to the A41 and followed it through the village - so no close-up view of Waddesdon, but as you leave the village you do get a good view forward to Quainton and its windmill and back to the roof of the house. We also did a spot of cyclo-cross (mostly as smooth as the tarmac) to get a good close-up of Claydon House.
The weather was close and muggy, but oddly cold - more like March than May.
