My heart goes out to you man

TPT loop and a bit. 15 miles.

In the background is the keep of Conisbrough Castle, of Norman origin, and inspiration for Ivanhoe.


Disused railway bridge over the Don Gorge, linking the TPT with Warmsworth.

TPT footbridge over the River Dearne between Mexborough and Cadeby.

Keep on keeping on

Beautiful sunny day. Bright blue skies. Little fluffy clouds. What's not to like?

 

[Markybeau]

I see a bad moon a rising
I see trouble on the way...

Misty morning, followed by a sunny afternoon. The slow creep into autumn has begun.

 

[CassidyAce]

I hear hurricanes a-blowing
I know the end is coming soon
I fear rivers overflowing . . .

Cool photos ^^. The opposite end of the day—a beautiful day—but an autumn day. A riverside ride on the nippy little Ridgeback:

And again. On the Rockhopper, because it has lights. Less nippy than the Ridgeback but faster than yesterday.

An irresistible scene this morning. The swan was very obliging. A little further along the canal than yesterday.

My penultimate commute before a week of annual leave.

I'm in love with the RSP 550. The sticky forks have loosened up, and it's fast. Like a good sportsbike chassis, the harder you ride it the better it gets. Almost Honda-esque reassuring and stable.

11°c this morning- cool
20°c this afternoon- warm

Those early morning rides must be incredible. Wish I was disaplinned enough to get up and do them

Similar Autumnal scenes here in Bolton last week.
