Rather like riding on small marbles. A bit dodgy, but doable. I'm sure it has all been oiled by now. Until some heavy rains and cooler weather, I'll be riding on the trails, or the streets and roads that are not oil and gravel.

And if you've to turn whilst on it, have you a good chance of your wheels going from under you?

just gravel, no oil.

Over here they do it the other way round, they pour hot Tar on the roads then chuck the chippings on the top, it wouldn't be too bad if they then 'rollered' it but no they leave that up to traffic, can be really dodgy for a couple of weeks on a bike and a lot of cars can end up with chipped/cracked windsheilds.

That brings back memories. I'm not sure I've ever seen that being used here; will have to be more attentive.

Well that was 7 minutes of my life waster waiting for my first cuppa , went to pour it out and hot clear water came out
I had put the tea bag in the mug and the boiling water in the cattle

And a plastic sword with a glacé cherry skewered on it.. 👍🏼

What have those poor moo cow ever done wrong to you?

On another note my coffee just hasn't done it, it doesn't even taste right

Yes and they stick a 20mph limit on it too.

Up here on one road they've forgotton to take the 20mph signs down after the resurfacing they did months ago and are confusing people .

It's very grey and wet outside. Best stay indoors and have another mug of tea.

Thought I might manage to sneak in a short run before the 🌧 arrived this morning. I was wrong.

There's a small, isolated patch of blue sky up above. Not enough to tempt me away from my caffeinated beverage research.
