No snow here but boy is it cold, lovely crisp weather for walking though!

Spectacular trip PD @Prairie Dog Your photos are just incredible 👌 feel better soon!

Thank you Flora, you probably know more than me now... 😂

Yet another beautiful day so I made the most of it with a lovely walk in the morning and a stunning ride in the afternoon, once again we had light winds (that is changing tomorrow) and although it was a frosty start to the day it was a nice 10C when I set off at midday! I decided to head NW and...

Another gorgeous day for a bike ride, much cooler but with light winds it didn't feel cold at all! My plan was to head for the Forth bridges which is always a great ride when the winds are light! I set off just after 9am with a planned ride of around 70 miles or so, I took the cycle path past...

That is insane, how am I still alive? 🤣

I can confirm it wasn't me! ;) Japan! Hopefully all is ok...

Another decent day for a ride with light winds and a temp of 12C @Stefan Mikes which is very mild for here in November! I headed out to Shieldhill on the back roads and stopped for a couple of photos of the Forth Valley with the Ochil Hills in the background before hurtling down the fast descent...

Thank you, Flora! I miss your wonderful posts, I hope you are doing ok?

I finally had a nice day and enjoyed a cracking ride, conditions were just perfect with light winds and a temp of 10C! I had a nice walk in the morning when it was rather misty and headed out on the bike just after midday and even had a big yellow glow in the sky that has been almost non...

1c in sunshine yes please, way better than 12C in rain!

I had a choice of getting out on the bike yesterday on a very windy but 'dry' day or going out today with lighter winds but more chance of rain! I chose yesterday and made the most of the 35mph winds but got soaked in the process! 😂 Ironically the rain was minimal today...:rolleyes: Anyway I...

I planned a ride to go over the Campsie hills today but I was torn on whether to do the climb at Lennoxtown or from the Denny end, the wind was from the SW and around 20mph which would have favoured Lennoxtown as I would have had a nice tailwind on the way back but a lot of climbing! So I...

Imperial century #20 for the year! I looked at the forecast last night and it looked fine for a long ride out to Burntisland but when I woke this morning it was showing rain from 8am to after 10am! :rolleyes: I looked outside and it was a little damp but certainly not wet at this point, the...

You are correct about Jerry's enthusiam, he lives and breathes aviation but he would never want to see a crash like all of us that watch! I have been a paying member of BigJetTv for over 4 years! ;) He travels the world streaming and is actually live form DFW as we speak, its a members only show...

Well I have maintained an interest and watch live streams all the time, its actually around 3 decades since I visited an airport though! ;) I forgot to mention a total moron in a BMW X7 that blasted his horn and pointed to a cycle path next to the road when I was doing over 30mph, there were...

I was in 2 minds about going out today, with a 30mph WSW wind and heavy showers predicted I was reluctant to chance it! After lunch I had a look outside in all directions and it looked brighter to the east so the thought of having that 30mph tailwind filled me with enthusiasm so I went for it! I...

Thanks PD! That part of Japan is just incredible, it looks like you are both having a real blast! 👍 All the best with your trip, looking forward to reading about it! You are officially insane...🤣 You wouldn't be sitting on a bike where I am, you would be on the deck for sure!:p Storm Ashley is...

Thanks Dave! Thanks Dave, don't do yourself a disservice mate! 25000 is some going! 👍 Giant have more important things to do, like a new road bike maybe...;)

35000 miles now covered in just over 6.5 years and it has been a whole lot of fun! A rare Saturday ride for me, we have a huge storm coming tomorrow and the weather isn't looking bike friendly going into next week! So I moved things around that I normally do on a Saturday to get out while the...
