I got out on my bike this morning. The plan was to go south and explore around Willoughby/Grandborough Field area, but once I was out and realised how blowy it was I changed my mind and headed for Ullesthorpe, I was climbing out of Withybrook and the rain started, by the time I was in Monks kirby it was raining steadily so i decided to head for Brinklow and home, in Brinklow the rain had eased and I headed for Bretford, halfway there it had stopped so I put in a Loop through Kings Newnham and into Church lawford where the rain started again, I turned across the main road and headed for Wolston through the little lanes, when I got there I headed for home through Binley Woods, down the Binley road and up onto Hipswell Highway and Sewall highway, getting to the top of Lythalls Lane I put another loop on down Rotherham road Beake avenue and Parkville highway, giving me 32 miles for the morning. I arrived home a tad cold and wet.

Had a great ride today. I felt really good so headed out for a full assault on Sheephouse Lane. Rode gently there for 8 miles, HR average only 107 as I approached the start. I gave it full gas for 2.1 miles on a 5.3% avg climb, 12 minutes 3 seconds. Felt I'd achieved something..............
............got home to find I was 67 seconds off the pace to catch my mate who is first in our age group.

Today there are skies of blue, light SW winds, 40C high, paradise with a mountain view. A ride before it's too hot is in order, but after a little core work and stretching. After the ride some planting, and a river walk. Perhaps fire up the grill and some rare tenderloins, twice baked potatoes and a salad. Carpe diem, compadres.

I have fulminated regularly about the useless local coop we have and today was no exception. For the third week running there were no eggs available. Even tho' before 0900 is for pensioners [ nominally at least ] it is beyond them to carry over any stock so that there may be something to buy.
Later while heading round the back of the house towards the dustbins I heard somebody calling my name and there was a woman I shared timekeeping duties with at the local annual cyclocross event. [ Think standing in a walk in freezer while somebody hoses you down with icy water while trying to write numbers on a damp bit of paper with a blunt pencil]
I had been overheard making disparaging remarks about the said coop and she had brought me a gift of a dozen fresh eggs. Normally I try to be a bit philosophical about things but I nearly burst into tears.
