Yesterday's adventure took careful planning. From deciding which bike to use to " 'Ere I thought we were going to Bath ! " When we ended up in Bristle!

Here are a few shots of our ride .

This is my main fear!
https://www.lancashiretelegraph.co.uk/news/17585336.flies-in-home-led-to-discovery-of-burnley-womans-body/ Not only was she undiscovered for what seems like weeks,she was also found by her window cleaner(my former job). In all my years of cleaning windows,i saw many flies buzzing round scuzzy houses,but thankfully no dead bodies. If I popped off like her,i wouldn't even be discovered by my window cleaner,as i live in an upstairs flat and he uses a water fed pole,so no climbing ladders to see me led there.

Ah! I had to find that one in my garage. It has a different size seat tube from the others. I used that one as it has QR wheels , lower gearing and is a pleasant ride.

I will be out Big Game Dandelion hunting later. They are crafty blighters, a bit like icebergs, a lot more of them underground than on the surface .

We have Easter eggs

35 mins on the turbo,and i then ccleaned both bikes.I also wish to report i STILL have my large Easter egg,unlike Mrs P who confessed to have eaten hers already.

I've still got my Christmas reindeer, well a bit of it anyway.

Got to the caravan late last night. Mrs F coming down after work today.

Been out early on bike. 16ish miles, 95% off road tracks from Gronant, Prestatyn, Dyserth, Rhudlan, Rhyl and Prestatyn.

Been 18 months since I rode along the coast path, stayed in Towyn then.

It's curious how they haven't been cultivated as a flowering plant.

Dandelion leaves are good in a salad, this being said by a man with a dandelion or two in his lawn.
