It's cooled down a bit. I did venture out for about fifty odd miles, a slow perambulation on mostly minor roads on my roadster as it was too hot to put any real effort in.

I think I consumed more water than the Flying Scotsman during the course of the ride, stopping at graveyards to refill my bottles:whistle:

Took the drums in the car to my uncle's house to restock with water as ours still isn't working. Funny how you can live somewhere we're it rains for eleven months of the year and there is no water after three dry weeks. (for bonus points arrange these words to form a sentence - Council piss couldn't brewery orangise up a in).

Relaxing now in the garden with a bottle of Smithwicks.

Stuck a load of uniform in the washing machine this morning, had a mug of coffee and then popped out & delivered a birthday card for my step niece while the machine did its thing, Got home just as the spin cycle finished.
The rest of the day consisted of making a flask of coffee, a bottle of squash, grabbing a pack of sausage rolls and buggering off to Snetterton for an afternoon of club racing, then stopping off in Diss on the way home to purchase the necessary ingredients for bacon rolls for tea.

Don't want to be accused of doing too much on my days off work.

The machine did the washing though.

My sat-nav has just finished updating.
Best of luck. Hope you know which way you're supposed to be going.
 
Sorry guys and gals, I just spent the day immersed in assorted televisual sporting entertainment. The Formula E, the Hundred (my team lost, boooooooooo) and the 'lympics.

Started watching the men's road race last night. Got about an hour or so in and fell asleep. Just finished catching up with it after managing to avoid the result. Wow! That was worth hanging on for. :notworthy:

In other news, I did a load of laundry and cooked a chinese meal (chicken with green beans, onion and ginger, plus egg fried rice)

Anyways, I need a :cuppa:
 
I went out for a ride yesterday afternoon. I wanted to try out a new old bike that I've been working on over the past few days . I had spent the morning fitting it up and was determined to try it out despite the drizzle . I had considered just doing a short ride as I was getting a bit wet but I pushed on over to see my brother . I did 12 miles in the end . The ride went well. I can't seem to remember much about it apart from a bit of vibration and the fact that the brakes need adjusting, which is a bit odd as the frame is a bit on the small side for me when looking at dimensions in books . I think I will have to try it out again but this time pay more attention to how my riding position is . :wacko:
I know that on some of my bikes I am constantly swapping my hand position from hoods to tops and back again . :wacko:
