Today's Ride

[al-onestare]

Riding alone is the best

Blue skies, hazy high cloud, glorious sunshine. Stiff NWN 15-18mph breeze. 12 degrees, feels like 10. Time for Ryder to make an appearance. Sketchy as hell, a slow puncture but tremendous fun. All the riding on the 29er pays off when you go back to 26

Wedged in the undergrowth to stop Ryder from blowing over

Ha, we're also at the Donau, just some hundreds or thousands kms upstream. Could maybe send you a message in a bottle...

that would be fun! my wife's and both our daughters' main sport is rowing, maybe they could catch the bottle.

Third stage today, the most beautiful in terms of scenery and the worst in terms of weather.

The short climb at the end was worth it, we spend the next two nights at Wildenstein Castle.

my better half said 'let's go riding!' who am I to decline her wish?

the altitude data is far from truth since this is almost a flat bicycle path along the river Duna (Donau), but the distance is correct.

Great to see these properly segregated cycle ways. Cool!

I have wanted to do a lap of my town for a while now. The bike I'm building for road miles is no closer now than it was years ago, so I decided to do the 32 km on Duck Norris.
First, down Powerdam Drive to Cornwall Centre Road, the north west corner.
Then the length of Cornwall Centre/South Branch Road.
Past the golf course to South Branch and Boundary Road, called Grant's Corners, the north east corner

Through rolling farmlands then a yucky industrial area, extra gross because I had to look at my work on my day off.
I sped past, made it safely to Boundary and Montreal Road/Highway 2, the south east corner. The river forms the southern border, United States is way over on the other side beyond the islands
Refreshment break! Then onwards home, to Powerdam and Second Street, the south west corner
I didn't actually go to that corner, it's under construction. But it's out there somewhere, I swear. Anyways, it was a great ride, could be better with some gears I suppose

Quick evening loop to enjoy the sunset.
Up through the wood...
Along the ridge...
Then back down through the meadow.
Little sign of humanity.

Maybe just a good excuse but the weather seems even worse than last year and my motivation for cycling has dropped in a dramatic way I’ve no idea if it’s really climate change or coincidence

Making some apple cake instead, quick and dirty

And while you’re at it, why not some salami style pizza

sorry for ot

Out here in the provinces we like to keep our finger on the pulse, and make informed decisions based on detailed thorough research...
The world keeps on turning and we will try our hardest to make it stop.


Was out for over 2hrs and Google Fit reckons I managed 2.3 miles. In which case Google Fit can go **** itself, and has since been uninstalled. Cool when I set off. Warm when I returned.

I feel I owe this thread an apology as all my posts are essentially the same and scenically bland .
There's little or nothing I can do about it atm though.
Apologies.
