I've just come back from a 12 mile ride . I thought I had better go out before the weather turned bad .
So that's 2 rides on the Holdsworth Avanti this week . 24 miles on Monday and 12 tonight . That's 72 miles on the bike so far and it rides well.
As someone said on another forum it does encourage you to ride faster on it . I am happy with it .

I had one & it was viciously cut back every year, otherwise the pavement would be somewhat narrowed by it.
Rain of Biblical proportions here means that I cancelled this evening's planned ride.
Did a little bit of tidying in the shed and also cleaned and oiled the chain on the Brompton and fitted new rear brake pads. Noted that the rear tyre is almost worn through to the canvas, the chain should ideally be replaced and the brake cables aren't as free as they should be. I admit I have neglected it.
I know that I use the bike pretty often but I didn't think that I'd clocked up that many miles on it. I only replaced the tyre in 2019 but I suppose that the small wheel size means it will wear out faster.
I also found my missing spanner,
slightly corroded now. 
God only knows why I left it sitting in the window box

If I had any ice cream...
Yep. A rather venerable Westwood ride on with a 36 inch cutting deck.

I assembled a latte server, which is what furniture people now seem to call it, although it looks alarmingly like a credenza. I also assembled an office chair, all of this looks rather early sixties French Provincial in style.
