Back on the bike today after some truly pigging awful weather for the last couple of days. Rain, 30mph crosswinds, and a lack of determination kept me off the bike. But today was BEAUTIFUL, if more than a little chilly - windstopper, fleecy-lined leggings, skiing mittens and a huge grin as the sun rose...

I Love It When These Things Happen
Morning Run - Three Beautiful Things
The disk of the sun just above the horizon as I started my run
The skylarks doing their duelling banjos thing above the fields
Wife having a steaming mug of really good coffee waiting for me when I got home. Actually, this last one didn’t happen - she was too busy and sensible, still being beautifully...

Cold . . . just so . . . cold
OK, so if you live in a real live (or even deep frozen) continental climate, you’ll justifiably look down your nose at this . . . I mean, us maritime climate inhabitants are such wimps, aren’t we?

Short Run - BEAUTIFUL Dawn!
Autumn is here, and there’s a definite chill in the air. I even dug out my gloves last night, though it still felt a little too warm for them when we set out.

There was a light frost last night, so parts of the pavement had...

Is that Autumn In The Air?
Today is Tuesday, and that means one of my two weekly run sessions with Shana. When I got up this morning, the house felt cold - where’d the summer go? Actually, come to that, when did it arrive?
So although it was a beautiful cloud-free sunrise over the sea, it was time to start moving...

Hawk, Baracuda AND Phil Too
It’s looking like being a busy end to this week, so before I forget, I wanted to wish these three ‘good luck’ for the weekend:
Phil Sabin’s riding the Courage Classic in aid of the Rotary Endowment for the Intervention and Prevention of Child Abuse and Neglect. With all that training he’s been doing on...

Pimping My Bike
I’ve done a bad thing.
I’ve submitted three photos of Trixie The Fixie to the Fixed Gear Gallery. I know I said that I wouldn’t, but we went out for a ride today, and I had just so much fun that I wanted to show everyone what I’ve got. And now I feel like I’ve...
