Anyone else?
Feeling so comfortable in my riding skin I'm happy to stay at home as I had planned weeks ago.
Had a good ride on a hilly 100k yesterday, and I'm racing Tuesday.
So don't feel the need to go mental just because the sun is out.

Going to walk the dog, cut the grass (again) and put the baby gate up to keep the grand daughter at bay.

Everyone else have a great day......and put that lotion on, if your not a pro or a kiddy fidler then you really don't want a two tone tan.

Recovering from yesterday's 90 mile Forest of Dean sportive with its 18 climbs (wish I'd done more rides in preparation as the tank was completely empty at the end), so spending today catching up with admin and off to the local community fair later.

Went out at crack of dawn, done all my riding. 🙂

3hr MTB ride, haven't been MTBing in months. The route is a very cheeky one as well and can only be ridden in bone dry conditions so it made sense to get it done before it rains and before all the walkers were out. Was back home before 10am!

Just doing some stuff round the house, will put the Giro on now.

I've just had a brutal week of training and am tapering for Sheffield half marathon next Sunday, so all i've done today is stroll to the cafe and wave my kettlebell around for a bit this morning.

Went round llandegla yesterday after work and decided with the rare dry trails being back..plus doing the hop xc series this year, to go and give it another go...far too unfit after only beimg able to get one ride in a week over winter...it's crazy how many people are out and about on a sunny day, good to see folk giving it a go, even if they are on a 1992 Raleigh "no name" bike.

Did the Dyfi yesterday, so today was a combo of bike washing & repairing, mowing of multiple lawns, a spot of outhouse door staining and some other DIY stuff interspersed with Damme Cold Coors Light and polished off with a BBQ, nice
