@twids that looks spectacular, where is it?
I went out on the Curtis yesterday, maxed myself out on my "favourite" climb before meeting my single speed monster mate and another mate on his EBB. By 16 miles I was dead, on the climbs I was trying and failing to stay with the SS and down the trails the EBB was snapping at my heels. I limped home to finish on 18 miles but being chased by the derestricted EBB I took 5 secs off a PB I set in 2016

Been out with the pooch walking along the beach this morning - stunning conditions. Very low spring tide at 07.43 meant lots of sand. He just wanted to sniff bushes at the top of the beach!

I stayed in The Chain Bridge quite a lot when we moved a company from the NE to Ruabon. Nice location.
Some good roads around the area too. ๐

After 2 nights with one left to go and the road bike out of commission it was time to draft the Epocalypse into service.

Thatโs beautiful
Despite being a lifelong motorcyclist, I have to admit that thereโs a lot about cycling thatโs even better.

35 miles on the E-bike yesterday and 21 on the Curtis today make for a tired Galactic Dictator but the SDW in a day is possibly looming so I need to harden up my @rse and develop some endurance.

I assume you've done it before?
