    The hills in Devon tend to be quite gentle, while the hills in Norfolk are very small, and few in number.

    I should be home now but I'm not. I'm still at work.

  • I just saw a woman buy a cycling helmet today and then she cycled off with the helmet in a plastic bag dangling from the handlebars. How does that work?

    Maybe it was for someone else.
  • Maybe, but she looked like she was kitting up for a regular commute. Very attractive woman, as it happens. The mechanic dealing with my bike got quite distracted and I reminded him the he was supposed to be looking at my bottom bracket, except I said it louder than I meant to so that while the mechanics were laughing, she overheard and turned round, and it could have got very embarrassing.

    I had a dream last night in which someone was trying to shoot me, he cornered me and as he was raising his gun to shoot me (this is the bit that freaked me out at the time) I remember realising that I was in a dream and that I needed to wake up right away, which I did. I lay there for ages thinking WTF was that all about?

    Put newly acquired helmet into bag of a plastic composition, place handlebars through said bag's own handles and pedal away.

    Better than having a plastic bag on yer 'ead.

    For charity I scarpered up some mountains. Feet were in tatters. St Anns Jombulance man bandaged feet up & said " carry on lad, you'll be alright. You can't die of blisters"...

    Joan of Arc & plenty of Heretics did.

    I'm amazed at the number of people who think that there is a "d" in pigeon.

    I did my first ride of the year in shorts. I even got a wolf-whistle (and from a girl!) Bonus! 8)

    I dug up and burnt an apple tree on Sunday, which was also nice. It's just a little pile of ash now!

    It's nearly half way through April already - how did that happen? :?
  • Why do people saunter up to pedestrian crossings and press the button without looking at the road? If there's only one cyclist in view on a straight road, you can get across without having to stop the cyclist!

    Has it done anything good yet?


    My suggestion is that you put it into a DVD player or a computer and watch what happens. You might enjoy it. :wink:

    I'm not sure that's what mrspassout meant when she said she would like some Cox outdoors. :wink:
