After finally getting out on the bike, thought I'd make an effort. I was going to do an overnighter but I'm still not recovered, my lungs told me that today

Lunch stop, there's a lovely ripple pattern on the water below.

Close up of said ripple!

After stopping for lunch, I then rode around for another 3+ hours with a large noodle in my beard

Thought I'd copy @summerdays here, I couldn't be bothered to get of the bike

I did however include a bit of it, plus my tread pattern

Bark pattern

Weave pattern on my saddle plus bark pattern, I'm on a roll now!

@djb1971 you do live/ride in a beautiful place. Where exactly is it?

 

[summerdays]

This mornings commute, the pattern of winter branches and railings against the morning sky:

And on the return journey the pattern of a newly trimmed hedge, I look forward to not having the pattern of brambles left on my face when I forget to duck.

Reminds me of Cadbury Heath

Reminds me of Cadbury Heath

More like banjo island if you ask me.

I don't live there, just ride there, lots!

The pic of my bike by the tree has Vyrnwy in the background, behind that you can see the Berwyn mountain range. That's where I ride

I gather these are local beauty spots

Oi!!! when didn't I get off the bike? (secretly wonders if I might have commited this minor crime but at least I get nearer to my bike than @User14044 )

The one with no bike in it, you must've been on it

Not exactly beauty spots. And I do have fond memories of North Wales as a child as I had a second cousin from Bala and we would go and camp there as a family back in the late 70s

Ok from the bike shed ..... One proper photo, one arty farty (well I must have pressed the screen accidentally but I liked it)

Ok the second one might be pushing it even for the likes of @potsy and @User14044

Am I the only one trying to work out which is which ?

[looks carefully]

Ah - one is only a LS cycling top on the ground possibly being blown by the wind, so the other one must be the 'official' entry.

You can't fool us all, @summerdays !
