Today's Ride

[db95]

Late posting yesterday's ride since eating bacon sarnies and watching only fools and horses took precedence over uploading to imgur when I got home Quick early morning lap, sun made an appearance along with some pretty terrible headwinds.

Had been getting some on/off wrist pain the last week or so which I figured was probably due to the stem being very short/tall at 50mm/30 deg, swapped it for a Cube stem which I believe is 75mm/6 deg then went and put 60km on it. Felt a lot better but I feel like I'd benefit from something slightly longer/taller. Hit my favourite route which is the Hart to Haswell line on NCR1 which was looking very autumnal.

I like the look of that Blast with the brown-walled tyres

Brown wall? BROWN WALL?!!?

According to Schwalbe that’s bronze that is.

Clear skies but absolutely freezing for today's lunch break cycle, and somehow managed to get headwind in both directions. Will need to break out the long sleeves & gloves soon I think

An adventure out in to Derbyshire today and tomorrow. Being a Lincolnshire fenlander the first 10 or so miles of hills have been tough. Seemed to level out after a while so all good! Still we managed 40 something miles of some lovely trails and scenery. Something I’ve not seen on other rides the ratio of e-bikes to self propelled was honestly about 10 to 1, must have seen about £100k in e bikes on the trails today!

Best date slice I’ve ever had!

...and then this morning. Holy smokes. Full-on vaporwave sunrise followed by 100% Californian colours and filter: crisp, super-vivid, absolutely dreamy and ace. #blessed

12-15mph SSE breeze, high cloud with clear spots and a giant satsuma sunshine. Even got some sea spray in the big town to Newlyn where the fishing market was wrapping up. Mousehole was nice and quiet. I love the climb out of there
