Brilliant sunshine but a bit windy.
Dilemma. Triking, gardening or just go sit in the sun somewhere sheltered?

Sit in the sun for most of the day till the wind drops in the evening and spin out a few miles then

Whilst my son's getting ready for a race in Belgium I'm supposed to be prepping for a TT today. Using the NeilPryde Bayamo I built recently. However, given the stupidly busy week I've had (work cover, son to race meet-up and kit ready, more work cover) I've not had time to actually test-ride it *

Therefore ... is it sensible to race a bike that's newly-built and not been used before. Asking for a friend ...

* edited: I've now been up and down the street a couple of times. Nothing fell off. So what could go wrong?

Even better, trike to somewhere sheltered that serves cake and sit in the sun.

That sounds like a plan.

That sounds like a plan.

In March? Not here anyway as most are still shut and any open are polluted by touroid. I avoid crowded places due to the infection rates increasing. Sorry to get serious on a nice morning.
I do have an idea to try an off road route tho'.

I just had to prime some parts for something I'm making. As usual it took far longer to set up everything and shake the can than it did to actually spray anything...

Was there a brimful of asha too?

Don't think so

 

[biggs682]

Awake early so might as well get some miles done
Just a couple of things to do first though .

Ended up doing 50.7 miles
First cuppa went down well
Off to the auction soon

Popped out just after 9am for a quick blast round Rhudlan, St Asaph and Kinmel Bay. Guy in an SUV started flashing me and pointed at the cycle lane. There was no traffic, I was doing 25 mph steady on the St Asaph Kinmel Bay road. Said cycle lane is a badly maintained pavement with curbs
25 mph is an inappropriate speed for cycle lanes.

I just waved at him like a mad man. Lovely ride if really windy.

Your weekend (on the racing front) sounds a lot like my weekend. I don't suppose you've the linky for the Silverstone stream?

I'm also going to add some footy. Arsenal are playing Villa tomorrow lunchtime.

Here you go...
Timetable
Saturday (mostly a 4 hour VW Fun Cup race)
Sunday (A bit more variety)

Lovely dawn ride to work as the sun came with quite a chill wind coming off the North Sea. Looks like the holiday season has started as there were a dozen campervans or converted vans parked up on the open stretch of seafront overnight.

Sarah and Tom were sitting outside the church this morning. I know they were Sarah and Tom because their badges said so.

I think they set the church alarm off when they went back in.

I will give further sitreps if anything happens in the village again.

Sunny here chez Casa Reynard, but chilly and very blustery.

I slept in somewhat too, and I am now listening to Villa v Arsenal.

There may be cake later.

Happy Cake Day @raleighnut
