The second half of my Christmas present has arrived. I think the seller doesn't know how to measure things properly, because there is a 12% error in listed size and actual size...

We are now in Yorkshire. We had a nice sunny drive up . Blue sky for most of the way .

Leeds?

Urgh, we've got low water pressure. Burst water main just up the road in Witcham. At least we've got water, but quite a few people haven't, as they're out delivering bottled water and have set up two collection hubs locally.

Have filled up all my bidons and the kettle, so am alright for tea at least.

That'll be the third hand!

I spent the evening in Manchester as the velodrome has re-opened today. There's a lot of work still to be done but it was good to be back on the boards. Or the 'wooden wall of death' as Son no. 2 describes it.

New roof, new seats, glass edging but plumbing and electrics aren't finished with re-decoration still to be done as well.

Lots of people around so the photo's the best I could do, with some of the GB riders on the right.

Track leagues start in January (Mon/Tues/Fri) so I'll be over on Fridays from next month.

Yes. Could be. These things lead to other things.

Some of the central heating here was off for five days last week. I thought it was pretty cold. Last night, my BIL arrived in Canmore, a town on the east side of the Rockies in Alberta, Canada. Here's the sign informing the locals about the weather.

Did they have snow as well though!

Good morning.

Bike collecting day today so I need to drive the van. I've been waiting for the weather to improve so it wouldn't be icy.
