Our weather has been abysmal once again but I spotted an opportunity to get out today, it was very windy but at least it was dry when I set off just before midday! It was showing a 70% chance of rain around midday and not long after I left I could feel rain in the air, luckily the 35mph wind...

Back on my local roads today on a very cold but sunny morning, we had sleet and snow yesterday so the sun was very welcome! The forecast was showing rain arriving around midday, unsurprisingly it came earlier but at least it wasn't heavy! All the floods on my back roads had gone at last and...

Sorry to hear you have been unwell Dave, I'm glad you were well enough to get out on the bike! Feel better soon mate, best wishes! I was diagnosed with colitis but I only have 1 symptom so I'm not convinced about it...my doctor recommended Kefir and I have been using it in yoghurt form for a...

With the weather going downhill after today I decided I was sufficiently recovered from Thursdays epic ride to do another 100 miler, no battery anxiety this time thankfully! I set off just before 8am in overcast skies, they said it would improve as the day progressed and they got it right for...

A lot of my roads are very quiet but I have been known to wait a couple of minutes for traffic to clear! 😂

Some pictures from yesterdays epic 124 mile ride that didn't make the final cut in the Our Rides thread! https://forums.electricbikereview.com/threads/2026-our-rides-in-words-photos-maps-and-videos.58838/page-29#post-708175 I took over 200... 😂

Yes indeed Dave, they don't come along very often here so we have to make the most of them and I think the mission was accomplished! ;)

With perfect weather I just had to get a big ride in today, I didn't hold back and almost over did it... 😂 It was 5C when I set off at 7.45am with little to no wind so it didn't feel cold, I was planning to make my way down to Falkirk and head north for Airth and turn NW for Callander! I got to...

No chain issues this time? The terrain you ride on couldn't be more different to mine, I love my smooth roads... ;)

After 6 days of the weather gods throwing everything but the kitchen sink at us I decided to chance it today, the wind had calmed down to 30mph and the rain was meant to be just light with a 90% chance of it hitting! I can handle a little rain but I do hate setting off in rain, thankfully it was...

A nice bonus ride today in very blustery and grey conditions, no photos this time! Only 500ft less elevation gain than my big ride on Sunday and 40 less miles, good to be back on my hilly terrain... 😂 The forecast was looking dismal but they got it wrong thankfully, the highlight was my 46.9mph...

With rain forecast pretty much all next week and today looking very nice I just had to make the most of it, I noticed St Andrews was looking really inviting so it was time for my first foray to the NE this year! I travelled 50 miles in the car and parked in a layby between Crook of Devon and...

I'm usually the same but I didn't want to push my luck yesterday and get mowed down by some moron in a rush to get home... I found my perfect bike almost 8 years ago, I really don't know what I will do when it finally packs in! I will keep enjoying it until that day comes though, I still...

Road cycling at its glorious best! Today I had no route planned, my only plan was to cycle the best roads I could think of in my locale and I came up with a near perfect route! It was super hazy so I made the decision to keep my phone in my bag and just ride my bike with zero distractions! Just...

This morning it was very wet and very windy but the forecast was showing it clearing up as the morning progressed, thankfully they got it right apart from the wind! The upside of the wind was it dried the roads very quickly indeed and I actually got home with a clean bike for a change! The wind...
