The Retirement Thread

Good morning. Someone stole the sun and warmth.

Good morning. It has rained a little but the sky has cleared and it's 10C.

I've been awake since 2.00am. Plans to ride are cancelled even though it's a good day.

I have absolutely no idea what I'm going to do today.

There's a bit of cycle club admin I'll start shortly. It's a big membership analysis which is a big task and needs doing over a period of time. As a club we have written off 2020 with the exception of the AGM which has to happen and Awards Night though it's hard to imagine how anyone is going to win anything!!! 😮

The idea is to understand better what members want and have a big launch for 2021.

Good morning fellow retirees,
"What a grey day" to paraphrase Larry Grayson.
I'm first on the turbo this morning, should be passing Exeter early on, or "Excecerter" as my daughter used to call it😊
Have a lovely day folks 🚲🚶🏃☔

Morning all, someone has nicked the sun. It's still warmish but dull outside.
Dog walking shortly before the masses get up.
A ride out on the bike later plus a bit of foraging in the local shops for some fresh produce.
Stay safe everyone.

Are you going up or down country?

Pleasant but chilly walk done. Beech trees are only just coming out up here. Love the fresh, vibrant green when they first appear.

I'm heading up, Mrs Tenkay is heading down, perhaps our paths will cross 🤔
Mrs Tenkay has cycled LEJOG a couple of times in real life so decided to head back the other way on the turbo.
We're using an app called "Rouvy AR" and following routes that someone else has cycled and uploaded.
Because of this the route appears as a yellow line superimposed on a satellite view of the UK and the magnification means the underlying map is quite blurry.
The smart turbo does reflect the terrain somewhat and I feel as though I've had a good workout when I climb off.

Its cooler here, but not really chilly. Its quote tumid too.

Buy good quality charging leads. They really are better. MrsD has just got a new pricey one for her tablet and it now charges about twice as quickly as it did on the Poundland one.

Wouldn't disagree with that, but, as a quick and cheap way to determine if it was phone, charger, or lead, personally, the first thing I would check would be the lead, and, a cheapo off Ebay would suffice for that.

Morning all

There's only one way from here in this neck of the woods..... and that's 'up country'.

 

[Drago]

I think this week the Felt will be staying inside and the wet weather equipped Pinnacle will be my daily ride.

But, you can pass Exeter both ways, I just wondered if he had started your end or Mo's end.

He's not been near my end matey, oh no he ain't!

Good morning. Someone stole the sun and warmth.

It's over here. 21°C and it's been sunny all day. I'll give it back tomorrow
