Sorry to hear that @cyberknight, hope Mrs CK's infection clears up quickly.

Do you know what.... I’m the most unreligious person you’ll ever meet, but I just love these old churches.

And you’re never Russian on a tandem, you just take it steady!

I also not religious but I love to see the churches.The English country side would be sadly lacking without them.

A ride out by myself this morning on my Cube. There was a strong blustery wind from the south west, so I ended up in Gamlingay for the third time in 4 days!

I spooked a nice buzzard from a tree, and I saw some saddle back pigs too!

26 miles that were warm and blowy

A cracking day for a tandem ride out. It started a bit rubbish though, there must be a diversion on the A14 and traffic was heavy for the first 3/4 miles.
Once we turned off for Bourn it was back to normal. It was cool in the shade and lovely in the sun.

The blackberries were as sweet as me!

Our destination was Ashwell in Hertfordshire, but it was a reverse of the usual route. Once beyond Gamlingay things were looking familiar, but t’other way around.

We stopped at St John the Baptist church in the tiny village of Cockayne Hatley

Then we rode through Central Bedfordshire before coming back into Cambridgeshire, with a view into Hertfordshire and a view of Ashwell church in the distance

We sat in the sun on a bench in the churchyard and ate our pastry, it were good!

Ashwell has some nice buildings

On to Steeple Morden. We were last here in April and the church spire was covered in scaffold. Well, today it looked lovely with its new cedar shingle roof

Not long after this we bumped into another tandem couple, we stopped for a chat.
Heading for Meldreth and Shepreth somebody near me mentioned tea.... I knew of a tea room she didn’t know about in Shepreth, all thatched roof and sunny garden

Carrot cake was good!

Barrington village was looking nice in the sun before we went up and over the hill

Home via The Eversdens, I swallowed a fly and nearly had to puke to get the bugger out, I was going up hill too!

A lovely 48 miles.

My first club ride for a month today. Coped with the increase in pace, but was last of the nine of us up Cam Pitch despite all my recent climbing. It seems I don't climb any faster than I did before .... I've merely developed an ability to hang in there, suffering for much longer than most. Anyway, wasn't too far behind, and loved the social side of the ride, chatting with @Dark46 and everyone else in turn as we rode, and trying out a new café at the half way point. I can recommend the Yurt Café in the grounds of Berkeley Castle, by the way. Great cakes and nice coffee in unusual surroundings. 42.9 mostly flat miles done today, with less than 900 feet of climbing. Back in the groove and ready for next week's audax now.
Enjoy your rides. Cheers, Donger.

That must be horrible. I hope she’s on the mend quickly.

A nice day in North Yorkshire so out on my bike at lunchtime. Most of my usual routes are as flat as a flat thing but boy do you get punished when it’s really windy. The first 12 miles were great with several PB’s on Strava, I was flying!
The last 15 miles were into an energy sapping headwind!
Still a lovely ride out, 27 miles in total with an average of 15.7 mph.
