If you can find a bridge that really ticks you off, you're golden. :thumbup:

I'd like this for a challenge achieved, but I like the look of wind turbines 🤣

Despite looking a little grey in those pics, it's a lovely 20c today.

I actually rode past a duck pond* yesterday afternoon, but figured I was too late: someone else was bound to have beaten me to it! :D




* although - annoyingly all I could see were a lot of Canada Geese. :(

Will do - when I can / when it's nice. Very envious of the provençal weather at the mo!

I went out for another ride today, due to a road closure I had to take the long way home. Which I didn't mind at all, particularly as I completely smoked a local on a z750 on the last section.

I took these two near the top of the hill I live on

After much epic windyness, I took these two
ImageImage

The closest I could get to a duck, was the feeling like I should duck when going under this bridge
Image


I literally rode off the edge of the tyres too

Another blast today, some new roads, which were also awesome!

The Calimoto app said it would take 1hr57.
I only stopped 3 times to take pictures, so it actually took me approx 1hr 40

Still no duck though? 🤷‍♂️
