Flawless winter day. Sunshine, no wind, 17 deg.
Existential struggle this morning to decide where and what to ride. Local trails won the toss. Upside of that was a couple of hours in blissful near-silence of the bush, (other than the ping of small stones on the downtube). Downside is that kind of riding really aggravates my neck... fair trade-off occasionally.
Bacon and egg roll well earned for lunch.
Even applied for a job today. Too far to commute by bike, but then pretty much everything is from here. Still, would be a decent gig if it happens.
Oooooh look, the bar's open. 8)

Ciao
This morning I rode up a mountain for 22km to get a coffee (doppio lungho for those who care). Saw one car and two peds. It was very nice.
I then rode back down the mountain like a fool (spinning out on the 52/11 was, I feel, more down to the gradient than my feeble early morning legs). Must fit speedo and see if I can crack 100kph without dying.
Off to get gelati.

Damn right TLW, I was at the gym at 6.35 this morning.Advocate of disc brakes.0

I was up about 6.40, left the house by 7 to be in work for 7.30. All far too keen if you ask me. Unfortunately I've been working since I got here, pesky customers keep bothering me. Mind you it is still the busy time of year for us. August is quiet, but I don't care as I'll be on holiday. Got more to do before the holiday, the EPO is stressing. So I'm taking her out to watch the new Star Trek film tonight.0

If I suggested a film like that to MrsHD I'd wake up the following day with a pan shaped bruise on my head.

TDV is at her work. I'm busy sending her pictures of me and the bambini eating gelato in 28 degree heat with phenomenally stunning women floating around in the background.
Oooooooooooooooooooooooh - fresh cinghiali sausages and insalata verde with home made wine have just arrived. After this I may have another coffee and some more gelato before going to mafia owned water park to look at mafia chicks while bambini do water slide stuff.Postby team47b » Sun Jun 28, 2015 11:53 am

I'm exceptionally hungry after cycling into work so am now eating my body weight in food despite attending a healthy nutrition presentation at work this morning

POIDH or i'll claim you're in Stepney.
Tuesday the 26th of July is officially f*cking sh1t.
My OH's father passed away in the small hours this morning after a long fight with cancer.
I'll miss him, he was one of the few 'rents (1 left) that wasn't chipped out of stone and actually spoke English of more than one syllabub. Lost an ally there.
They want me to be a coffin bearer but I wrenched my back picking up Toots 2 whilst doing silly stuff - that'll teach me. Might have to go see the Chiropractor Torture bloke.
Another BBQ HD?! Be careful where you're going in the xxxl trophy thread.
Must go.seanoconn - gruagach craic!0 -

Did just shy of 50 miles back tyre exploded whilst I was sat at trail side cafe, old guy next to my bike about swallowed his teeth and had a heart attack. Sadly crap trail side cycle hire shop only did 26" tyres ffs. Had to jog / walk 13 miles in cycle gear as couldn't even do a bush fix. Currently got an ars* like a baboon from running in padded shorts.
Shouldn't have been doing something so paedophilic in the first place then. Serves ya right.
Now go and buy a Ritte and repeat 100 times: "I shall not soil myself with two wheeled tractors again".Postby team47b » Sun Jun 28, 2015 11:53 am
