Today's Ride

Was riding down the street this morning, turned right on the sidewalk where I lost the front wheel on the icing rain and hit the ground like a whale with my upper body. Could hardly breath and had to rest on my knees for a minute. Bruised ribs and pain in the shoulder, but nothing serious, luckily 😌 Good excuse not to go cycling this weekend, it's too cold anyway ;)

Hope you feel better soon 👍
 
Again, apologies as I hardly ever take my phone out on rides.
Glorious sunshine today and I did have the camera so snapped a few pictures of the bike with graffiti for that thread and planned to take a lot more pictures but ride was much more winter than I had expected, still plenty of frost and snow patches about. Just did a nice easy 6 miles to blow the cobwebs off and test a few things out.

Hope the bike is OK! 🤣
Next time better luck! 👍
 
Stellar day, so went off the beaten track a bit. Saw lots of (camera shy) roe deer and a few forgotten Bronze Age burial mounds.
Warm in the sun, but still frosty in the hollows and cold air woolly hatsville..
(Another 25 miles further in the contest between the Brooks team pro and my arse: you may win the battle Brooks, but the war will be mine…. 💪 🍑)

Brooks are great once they've broken in.
Until then we can guess at what Bubbas special friend feels 😖😖🫣
