Did a bit of a tour de West, South and North Yorkshire - 28 miles - feels like spring!

Wiseman, you come across as a proper cyclist, unlike me, with a proper well looked after bike, it does look cool mind

HAHA not really mate - It just feels great to be outdoors!!Wiseman, you come across as a proper cyclist, unlike me, with a proper well looked after bike, it does look cool mind
Yeah, they are great until you realise that you pinched your inner tube inside the tyre (using your second (and final cylinder)). That after having wasted the first cylinder, when you'd not realised you'd left the valve open on the presta connector gadget before screwing the cylinder on, wasting the whole lot before you could stop it.Normandy, South Bank to the Riverside then home
Got a puncture, how good are those cylinders that blow up your tyres, amazing.

I'll have to watch out for that cuthbert, cheers
I agree that they are brilliant... but did manage to waste two in a row in the way I described!

It is good to be out and about lads in weather like this. We sat in the garden and had a coffee this morning, it just felt good to be out in the fresh air.
I had my vaccine at lunch and that seemed to put a spring in my step - light at the end of the tunnel sort of thing. I bought some spring bedding plants and potted up a few pots and hanging baskets. The garden is starting to shake off its winter coat and take shape.

My ride to work on Thursday morning was nearly my last lol......perhaps I shouldn't have ignored the police barriers closing the path off?

It's great out there today. Just had a dawdle around Errington then up the cliffs, beautiful on Huntcliff.

What a good subject for a weekly thread. It might just provide a little motivation
@goalscrounger Do you know your link shares your name there mate, at least I think it does if you're MH. Depends on your views on anonymity, but thought I'd mention itMy ride to work on Thursday morning was nearly my last lol......perhaps I shouldn't have ignored the police barriers closing the path off?

I'd be up for that. One bike down at present, just taken the tourer in for a refurb and respray - it is over 35 years old and getting a bit scruffy. Can't bear to part with it, though.

I had no idea actually. There is nothing on the link that gives my name when I view it here so thanks for the heads up! Tbh I think a lot of people on here know who I am, or what I do (so could easily Google who I am anyway!)
