Bore da pawb.
Overcast with 19 mph wind gusting 30 here on Anglesey.

Good morning folks, its warm and overcast here today.

Sounds like my daily Y front forecast.

I dream of 8 mph uphill!

Well, I suppose it depends how steep it is... I could do roughly 8 mph on a 5% gradient. 10% and I'd be doing more like 4 mph. 15%, 2.5 mph. On 20+% I would be going so slowly that it would be a question of desperately trying to keep my balance!

There's nothing quite like struggling up a hill and your bike computer pauses as it assumes you've stopped!

Morning all.

A bit grey in North Wales, but still very hot.
Busy day for the wife doing pilates classes, meanwhile I have to decide which shorts to wear. 🤣

Some rousing patriotic tunes then?

Or getting to the last 50 yards of the hill then coming to a stop because you can't turn the pedals that slowly, I've done it on my fixed a couple of times.

A heavy rock version of Land Of Hope And Glory then.

Off out and about this morning. Might go to Sharpness and look at the ship graveyard.
Bit of shopping first thing and a pub lunch is in the offing.

At the risk of upsetting some, just thought I would mention, we have a mix of sun and cloud, but, mostly sun, 17C at moment, with 23C forecast for later today. Norfolk.
