I'm off for a spot of night time riding this evening. Looking forward to it
too.

I had the best ride of the year yesturday! Decided to forget about
average speed, cadance and the like and rode to the top of a hill
behind where I work called White Horse Hill. Sat alone looking back to
where I had just come and though...'cycling is sooooo great. I'm lucky
to have the ability to do it and those people driving around in their
little cans just don't know what they are missing'. Sometimes we get
bogged down in arguments with drivers, equiptment trouble and HRMs and
need a ride to remember why our lives revolve around two wheels!

Was that the sort of thing you wanted?

Yes, I could do with at least some "passive cycling" at present. I am
not well enough to ride and going from commuting 16 miles a day plus
leisure trips to just sitting around is really dull! Just a sniff of
others' cycling pleasures would help me get better!

Which WHH was this?

I took some snaps a few years ago after cycling to the top of such an
eponymous hill, sheep at the bottom were teensy-weensy white balls of
fluff...

Likewise here Peter
Just recovering after a spill on my own road bike!!!!!!

Have five stitches in my chin and three fractures of my jaw bone (OUCH!!)

Yesterday was indeed a good cycling day. Perfect weather - not too hot
and not much of a breeze. So, I took a very extended lunch and did my
first 40-miler ever, in just over 2.5 hours. I was very pleased with
myself yesterday...:-)

Does that help?!

Steve.
