Sorted thanks Nigel, I just unplugged it and plugged it back in !

I have times like that, sometimes think it gone totally U.S., glad it's all working.

I've recently bought a Garmin too, I love it. Just for being able to see the current time easily without having to fish around in my pocket for my phone :P

Biggler It is an early Christmas present from OH.
Just looking at some of the segments I didn't know about, pleased with my positioning on this one;

(Would love to know my position in age groups but to tight to go premium.)


Now I know it's there I want to go out again and climb the leader board!

Yes Mo, guilty as charged.
One of the riders about twenty places above me is a big cycling figure in this area who helped give me the confidence to ride my first sportive this year. I just have to get in front of him

Good luck with that! There are several females around here that are club riders/racers and even giving myself a heart attack trying, I'm afraid I will never be as fast. Good fun seeing how close you can get though.

Currently sitting at home while on gardening/redundancy leave as my company is trying to move me internally, so no commuting, also been working on the house, did a nice ride on the MTB and about to head out into Epping missing my riding at the moment!!!

 

[ceejayh]

I'd love to get a garmin (or similar) with a proper route planner because I like to try new routes and at the moment I'm using Mapometer on the laptop just to get distances then trying to remember the route while out on the bike!! More than once yesterday I had to stop and check my phone to remind me where I was and which way to turn.
Finances won't allow at the moment...maybe I should write a letter to Santa .

Went out for the first time since late August when my knee started giving me jip, was given a knee strap and went out on a pootle to Kingston and back with @themosquitoking & partner. Didn't feel any twitches but will have to go easy and monitor it. Felt great to be back on the bike even if it was just leg spinning really. Awesome weather for it too. Really enjoyable little ride.
