When that happens between a train and a tractor, it's called a 'ploughshare'. Typically, CycleChat people tend to go off the rails a little bit from time to time, or let off steam.

Well after dropping out of the Rye ride I thought I'd do my own version today. Dover to Rye along the coast with a steady 8-9mph tailwind the whole way, gloriously sunny and hot.

Folkestone harbour, sans water.

You went over the hill in this heat

I did, 40 miles dead door to door plus a bit of pootling around town. On the train home now.

The train vs tractor incident was caused by an inattentive (allegedly) straw-bale contractor who was collecting bales from my brother's field. Glad to say no one was seriously injured this time. Glad, as there have been a few train drivers killed in collisions with vehicles over the years.

Great pics @topcat1

yep checked my camera yesterday

 

[Fab Foodie]

I've decided I want a camera for my bike. Just need to find space

You'll find space just beyond the sky. At night it's easier top spot because the sky goes to sleep and leaves space up there alone with all those shiny things named after chocolate bars.
Hope that helps.

I can't remember his name, but you'll find him in a quiet soft corner of the Priory quietly sobbing ......

I took my Beta blockers, Statins, Aspirin and Prozac as instructed by my physician just this very morning .... and yesterday as well. And I've had a can or Red Bull, a large scotch and have nearly finished my first glass or red .... my 1700 flight's been cancelled and now on the 2015 .... pish.
