Brian, I suspect you had to fight as you were a mouthy smart Alec individual, not because you had red hair

A nice varied weekend of riding for myself. Hope everyone else managed a bit of riding or hopefully managed to get out in some nice weather.

Out today with Brian for a road ride, yes a ride that was on roads or tarmac tracks, lots of debris but still under it was road. And a great road it was too! A great ride it was too with Brian on his Cube and myself on the Jack Taylor. We even made it back just before the rain and darkness, only just

And a couple from yesterdays (Sat) ride into Thurso as I had to pick up all the bits and pieces of the electrics from the Bullitt. Seems it's the controller that is burnt out and can be picked up for £30 - £40 so may well be worth sorting over the winter. After testing the motor and battery are still perfect. Thanks to Sam from the Bike Shop for testing it all and sorting.

Went out for a ride to check what that bar steward Arwen had done to my local loop.
Spent most of it channelling the spirit of @epicyclo




Photo taken where a month ago my mate and I clear the two trees that came down a couple of years ago. No way I’m getting through that lot with my bush saw.
Country park even worse. Couple of the trees down are 4 foot across, with no access for heavy machinery. Can see the loch loop being open for a very long time.

Well I think I actually did this a few days ago when I had the wheel off, but today is when I noticed it - yup, my lovely 888s ain't quite so lovely no more And to think I didn't actually tighten them bolts much at all, may have been fatigued already from a previous owner possibly. So now I'm in need of a set of lowers for early-model 888 with the 35mm stanchions, heck if I know where I'll find that. Possibly them off an early-model 66?

The other week Jamie and I were out on the Kidical Mass ride with lots of tiny kids from about 4 upwards riding.

It was a trifle gusty and twigs like that were falling beside the road while they rode on unconcerned.

I have great hopes for the coming generation of cyclists.

I see your bike is laying down in solidarity with the fallen trees

It’s been taking lessons from OCP!

Oops, that’s me on “the list” again.

 

[velomaniac]

On his list again!......... your never off it, as opposed to OCP if "it" is his bike

Oops sorry OCP, did I type that out loud

I saw 3 ships come sailing in ....




Bit grey and cold this morning, might venture to the forests soon and see what the storm damage is still like.
