Popped out for a morning blast while the roads were quiet.

Lovely day for riding, 20 ish degrees and no wind.

Just under 200 miles mainly round the Cotswolds with a lot of "that looks like a nice road" kind of random turns.

Birmingham city are officially under new ownership tomorrow. There's a leaked document showing plans for a £150m stadium and housing project just up the road from the current stadium.

... fix the knock sensor on a Pan European. He showed us his Honda Fire Storm and prized "Show Pony" a very customised and immaculate Harley Road King. Then he gave us a lift to his favourite local restaurant and wouldn't accept any cash for doing it, I got a couple of snaps on the walk back. ...

Washed 2 weeks of bugs, tar and road grime off the bike and went over it twice first with Muc-off speed polish then again with quick detailer... I even washed the panniers. Then thoroughly cleaned and lubed the chain. Off to the dealer tomorrow ...

20-mile road ride on my MTB, with maybe a couple miles of flat dirt trails thrown in.
I'm beyond wrecked.....the heat was really getting to me today.

That's exactly it. It's generally better more of the time since he's moved office to another building down the road, except when it's worse, it's much worse. You're right, you can't win. I just held my ground with him and when he started repeating himself I bit my tongue. Ultimately, ...

I do like that road.
