Today's Ride

Overnight stay in Exeter for work, so yesterday morning I had a window to get out there. Chilly 8-9 degrees, but a very light 3-4mph W breeze. Clearish skies and a glorious sunrise. Pretty darn ace for an hours blast before the grind, and three times as fast on Simone than on the single-speed A'ha 🤣

Cockwood...(pronounced by some locally as CoWoo) very near where I grew up
 
Nice! I really need to sample the wears at the Anchor Wheel. It looks an ace spot to sup a pint.
It always was! (30 years ago :LOL: ) went there a few times, although we spent more time in Exeter or at Double Locks or The Turf , which were pubs along the canal that runs from Exeter past Exminster.

Me and the team were at the Double Locks on Tuesday night. Proper nice even though the weather was shite.

Cool weather, the odd shower.
I'm glad I didn't take a vintage steel piece because I ended up slithering around in chalk mud by the river
