Always worth the journey x^ a good ride with the GIGFYs! So nice to see you both.
Nice because it's certainly not hereSpring is here.
But the landscape looks awesomeNice because it's certainly not here
First ride in a month. A whole funkin' monthNot one pedal was pushed in February thanks to appalling weather, and in the handful of opportunities (literally 3) where I could ride, I was away with work. Absolute shit show.
However, today, NWN 14mph, 7 degrees but felt like 3. A yellow thing in the sky, not sure what it was. High cloud and some blue stuff, equally baffling. Even the moon was confused.

I hear you! Ever since I got back from the hospital I seem to feel the cold more too.
Could have been much much worseGot a little bit of a scare from a deer. It was laying down in the long grass less than a meter off the paved path, jumped up to flee when I rode past. I was so startled, I let out a good shout. In fact, I turned back and gave it a good scolding. It did not seem phased, not concerned with rush hour traffic happening another couple of meters behind me.View attachment 826955Can you see it? Nearly invisible until they moveView attachment 826956
Also, flocks of hundreds and hundreds of geese are arriving. It's too soon, we'll be under snow again shortly View attachment 826957
Geese are actually standing on the ice still covering the canal
