Not been on the bike for 4 weeks. Mrs Domus having surgery on her broken wrist tomorrow. Thursday looking promising weather wise (dry)
Fingers crossed.

Managed it. Phew. Coffee and toasted tea cake sat outside at Frederick's in the sunshine then home via Chorley Old Road, surprised myself on the climb out of Horwich as heart rate didn't peak as it has in the past. Must be the running I've been doing. Might just sneak another to try out my new bike which Ribble say is almost ready

Thank you.
Couldn’t do a 100km last month with the combo of positive LFT and weekend working, as well as during the week, it just didn’t happen. Grotty weather was unhelpful too. I was determined to get the half century challenge done again though.
Congratulations to all those who have completed already and will do soon. Roll on 2022

Could I please possibly ask for your friendly moderator to add to my signature for me? Can’t get it to work for some reason, probably because I’m on a phone?! Thanks
And we're across the line!
Met Office was showing grey cloud all day but no sign of rain and the wind was not too strong so had to make the most of it.
Kept to my normal route for the most part but went past where I used to work to find a completely deserted building. They've moved to another building down the road but it's smaller meaning that WFH is probably becoming the new normal.
Roads are very wet, muddy and slippery so lots of bends taken with a bit more care than normal. Had to hose the bike down after the ride. First time this year. I'll have to do the chain properly in the next few days but at the moment it's better coated in its protective layer(s) of oily stuff.
An elderly lady on a cycle nearly caught out the car following by just stopping in the middle of the road. No looking, no signal, just stopped to turn right. I twigged what was going on and went down the inside. The ABS on the car saved a potentially nasty incident.
Anyway, 2021 challenge complete. Thanks to @13 rider for keeping us all under control. Congratulations to everyone who has finished, and best of luck to those still in the chase.
January - here we come!
