Have a good weekend
Not much planned for the rest of the day, might clean another bike so it's ready for when it's raining less.
Blimmin heck its cold. Sacked of riding as I don't want to get dead disease on icey roads so drinking coffee and watching the simply magnificent Kari Byrne.
Will finish off rebuilding the divine Soloist in a bit - need to get b/b threads run through by a friend but apart from that its simples. It looks freakin' cool so far, perfect winter bike.
more coffee, perhaps augmented with toast
There's a glowy bright thing in the sky and the clouds are blue.
So none of this early pedalling malarkey. Will go soon now the glowy thing has burnt off a bit of moisture and possibly ice.
Colnago fettled, lubed up and champing at the... err, front wheel?
Kari Byrne or Kari Byron?
He didn't.

Blue-eye trevalla, straight off the fishing boats.
Hoki is also readily available here (aka Blue Grenadier).
Basa is imported only, which means I ain't touching it!

The Soloust. One word. Pwwwwwoooaaaarrrr. The Kari of the bike world.
Just need to head into the lift to get an Ultegra groupset to fit then the long wait for my cable clip things to arrive from the US.

Traditional slow start was enjoyed, just had a coffee and about to put a few lights in the bushes out front. Taking the EPO to B&Q later, I know how to show a girl a good time.
The MFs wil be in the temple of love today then.
Drinks with neighbours whilst standing in the road later, long johns may be needed 😳
Oh, nearly forgot. Happy birthday Spinner

Have been out with hounds and now headed into town and to my recently reopened local bacon, egg and sausage emporium for lunch, drop off a load of stuff at the charity shop, haircut then supplies. Footy watching and cider beckon later.
I saw 1 other 'cyclist' (on a sit up and beg).
4 Walkerists
500+ sheep*
200+ cattle*
6 Horses in fields - no riderists
4 Cars
2 Quads and
1 Tractor.
*The numbers are sheer speculation.
Must do some online shopping for xmas whilst the girls are out. Peace. Coffee. Biscuits. Woodburner.
Felicitations WS.
Got conned into going to the shops again this morning.
Went to the big car tuning place that does a sideline in bicycles and got some new jockey wheels on the way back which have now been fitted. Shifting seems a bit better now and hopefully everything's a bit less noisy.

Late day today. Late up, late start, late out on the bike, didn't get organised until the afternoon, stayed out a bit longer than planned and late back in fading light, just had a warming bowl of deep soup as late lunch. Sunny but nippy out, just as well wrapped up warm.
Couple new link routes tried out, bridleways and both v damn muddy. No pics; fail. One filthy bike part cleaned, give it a proper fettle tomorrow in the daylight. I do like that I grabbed the chance of a new graveller back in September, really enjoying it, a good investment.
I does the fettling in the kitchen.

Happy Birthday, @Wheelspinner!
