Re:

So how does everyone carry their camera / 'phone so that they stay dry and safe in a fall? I keep mine in a Camelback so don't take enough pictures. :roll:

Got two rides in today... early morning long road ride on my Majestic, nothing quite like going downhill at 41.4mph on an old steel bike to make you feel like a teenager again.... mind you I felt my age climbing though :facepalm:

2nd run was a quick blast out with kids on my Antaeus.... Poppies look gorgeous..

I have a TINY Quechua backpack. Its featherweight and has two sections the smaller of which i pack my phone which is what i use to take my pics. i was looking at those handlebar-mounted holders but dont think i could trust them.

I'm using a Quad lock case & mount... works perfectly and easy to switch from bike to bike, also comes with a waterproof cover

Home commute changed to follow a different part of the Harcamlow Way. Unfamiliar paths, and some of it not commonly used, having to push through vegetation in places. This time from Roydon through to Hunsdon, losing track of the waymarkers close to the latter. Encountered a fascinating old boy who had almost completed the entire walk.

Morning commute was very quiet - thumbs up for that. 9°c, but once I was warmed up didn't feel it. Ride back about 14°c and a bit of a headwind in places.

Keep mine in a little backpack. Stopping at various points on a ride, to rest and to take in the views and situation, is part of the whole experience for me. I still do it even without a camera on me. No rush to get anywhere or back

These random attacks by mother nature are getting a little tiresome

Beautiful morning and a wicked ride. Tomorrows looks autumnal again and wet so I'll likely go for a run instead.

It has been quite a while since i went out for a bike ride, always seem to be doing other things, which i guess is not a bad thing.

Anyway, the ground was damp, the sky looked like rain, so i decided to go for a ride

Only a short ride, around a few ponds, over a few hills, across the odd muddy field and through some woods. I did have to take shelter for five or so due to an opening of the skies which made the ground just wet enough to flick the surface into my face. The home stretch saw more rain, though i was already a bit wet, but warm and homeward bound so it was rather enjoyable.

A nice ride on a rather nice, if a little damp day.
