The Retirement Thread

You didn't ride home from Leeds.

Venod asked me that too when I picked the bike up... TBH, it didn't even occur to me! I usually avoid cycling in built-up areas as much as possible so I avoid Leeds, Bradford, Halifax etc.

I was going to take my CAADX to a bike shop in Blackburn to have its fork replaced but have put that off until their Covid situation improves. It DID cross my mind to cycle back from there but I probably won't, given that the return fare on the train is only a few pence more than the single and there are other more scenic routes that I would prefer to do.

You will be remembered much longer, if you got them lost, than if you didn’t.

Very true and some never let you forget either.

Oh the joys of club cycling.........

To Halifax and Leeds?

To the bait or unable to sleep? Geez the birds are noisy this morning. Time for a brew and a doze.

Crap sleep and saw every hour before eventually dozing for a bit between 4 and 5. Up now and will maybe bimble soon. Won’t be far.

Good morning folks,
A glorious sunny day, and quite a full one. I’ve already made coffee and watered the plants. Black bin day and vegbox then we’re off to the Black Bear in Wool. We’re reduced in number this visit as one of the lads is away in Cornwall. A table in the garden awaits and there’s a couple of new beers on for us to sample 🍺🍺

 

[Mo1959]

A nice relaxed 22 mile bimble which I enjoyed. Freshen up now and have breakfast.

More overcast today so might not get too warm.

Good morning people, it a fine sunny morning, my Good Ladies carer was here at twenty to seven, I had breakfast and had a line full of washing out before half seven. We had a good evening down the club yesterday, we met up with the Brother In law and his Wife for a chat, a drink and a game or two of Bingo, I won a tenner. Before we would use the car, pick them up and drop them off on the way, last night we walked down and caught the bus back, thats the first time we've walked it, takes about twenty five minutes and gives me a good work out pushing the wheel chair.
