Today's Ride

8) great shots al, i can never seem to capture the colours in the sky :|


Anyway, today i was dog sitting again, so i decided to just do a local hour loop.

Though the kids are back at school and it was just gone 3, there were quite a few out, mostly on bikes and all were happy enough to return a greeting, all but one, on an ebike, to be fair there could be many reasons they didn't acknowledge me, and for some strange reason it brings a smile to my face, so all good here :)

Really uneventful ride around an uneventful trail, but still enjoyed it, good to get out.

The '97 Team Explosif. The very best there is. When you absolutely, positively got to kill every motherfunker on the trail, accept no substitutes :wink:

Another chilly start, 9 degrees maybe rising to about 10/11 at 08:00. Very, very quiet on the trails so a super-ride with very few walker interruptions.
 
Re:

If I'm putting lights back on the bike we are seeing a season change.

Hazy morning for the ride in. Lots of dew. Got soaked by spray from some of the more overgrown paths.

It's gone very quiet along the trails. I didn't encounter more than a handful of people over the first 10 miles. I like it like that.

Very cool, left at 7 and it was about 9°c.

Coming home about 16°c or so, again quite cool. Lights used for the final couple of miles.

Today I've rounded lower Lake Constance. Perfect weather, crystal clear water at about 22°, beautiful small towns and not too many people at the end of the season :D

Re:

Couple of bikes, couple of walkers, couple of tractors. Saw more Red Kites than people. A quiet 20 miles this morning, over to Barwick Ford and back. Felt a bit sluggish. About 15 miles offroad. Taking in some of the views that I probably won't have chance to see again before I move. Couple of new paths and a byway near Cold Christmas.

About 13°c when I went out. 21°c when I got back. Light breeze. Goldilocks weather.
