Today's Ride

First ride of the year! (6th Feb - shameful)
A short but finger numbing loop round the outskirts of town & the nearest clump of muddy woodland

This was mainly a test ride for some new bits on the bike & to assess the Xmas damage on my fitness levels. The bike performed better than I did

Ye olde work commute
I should’ve put on the pdw fenders, the off-road portion was all surface mud, throwing little specs everywhere including all over my work jacket

Great colours, stem looks ace!

Very muddy 30 miles around (to me) really hilly parts of Leicestershire. But we made it round, great cafe stop at Launde Abbey, very bike friendly. Free bag of crisps and the biggest pot of coffee, 3 mugs each job. Car broke down on way home, it’s taken me a good part of the wine that was going in the stew to recoup my enthusiasm!

The 3 dots in the last but one photo are 3 Chinooks that flew low over us through the estate we were riding through. By the time I had my gloves off and phone out they were almost gone.
