    When I woke this morning it was wet outside and the forecast wasn't looking very inviting so I jumped in the car and headed to Callander Park in Falkirk for a walk in the woods, cycling wasn't on my mind at all at this point! On my way home things brightened up a bit and I decided to chance it...

    You can't actually get booked for speeding on a bike but there is a law called furious pedalling they can get you for... 🤣

    A rare Saturday ride yesterday to Knockhill Rcaing Circuit for the first motorcycle race meeting of the season, the weather was perfect so it was a no brainer to switch from my usual Sunday visit with 30+ mph winds forecast for today! I made my way out to the Clackmannanshire Bridge over the...

    After a couple of days rest I was ready to get back out today for a recovery ride after Monday's epic! It was another beautiful but blustery day, the winds were mainly from the SW but swirling about a bit and around 25mph! So I headed NE and had a nice tailwind to break my legs in, making my way...

    I tried to do this ride back in March but stupidly left my batteries behind, so with perfect weather today it was time to put things right! My plan was to ride inland to St Andrews and then take the coast road all the way to Burntisland and back inland to Knockhill Racing Circuit which was only...

    I was going for a 50 mile recovery ride today but couldn't help myself, at least I didn't go overboard... 😂 A chilly 4C at the start but a nice 13C at the end, a blustery 25mph ENE wind made it feel very cold into the wind! The best part about today was this, lovely new tarmac for the full...

    Today's forecast was wall to wall sunshine, only the sun didn't get the memo! ;) Not that it bothered me as the weather was just perfect for cycling with a temp of 15C and light winds! Due to weather and family issues my bike has sat idle for a full week so it was such a relief to get the wheels...

    A short recovery ride after Thursdays epic, my legs were still feeling it but thankfully I had a 30mph tailwind to start me off! It was pretty much a direct westerly so I made my way east to Dechmont where I turned north up Burnhouse Road, it was definitely a day for climbing it and not...

    From Zero to Hero, what a day! I had a big ride planned for today, around 120 miles with a 32 mile drive to Powmill where I was going to park the car in a layby and cycle up to St Andrews and head back down the east coast! I had everything in the car yesterday except my batteries, with a temp...

    I was hoping to get out yesterday as I have a big ride planned for Thursday but the weather had other ideas! So I decided to wait until today and after a bittterly cold morning with a hard frost things warmed up nicely in the afternoon, a pleasant 7C but with a chilly ENE wind around 15-20mph...

    I was going to do a ride last Tuesday when the weather was really nice but it was very windy, I then noticed today was looking perfect for a long ride! It was much colder than it has been recently but with light winds from the NW I just had to go for it, it was around zero degrees at 8.50am when...

    I find the range is usually at least 10 miles (16km) out but that seems way off, 28km should only use a small percentage of your battery! At 94% health your battery should be giving you much more mileage than that, I'm not really sure why you are getting such poor mileage! I have a 2018 Giant...

    A rare Sunday ride, I'm usually too busy these days or the weather is awful but today everything just clicked into place and I had one of those sensational rides that make you grin from ear to ear! 😁 Mist and fog lingered all morning but I had things to do anyway,the temp was around 10C but felt...
