XTreme Posted May 20, 2022 Share Posted May 20, 2022 Good weather here! However, I do have some work to do........so I'll only be able to get out for an hour or two. But at least I'll be able to get out.....which is more than I've been able to say for most of this year so far. What you lot up to? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Catteeclan Posted May 20, 2022 Share Posted May 20, 2022 Funs over, picking Mandi up from the train station at 13.00. This morning I'll be clearing up the mess I've made. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boboneleg Posted May 20, 2022 Share Posted May 20, 2022 I'm supposed to be out for a trail ride today, it's raining at the moment and some hefty showers later but I'm keen as riding in the rain always adds a different perspective to it. Waiting on a phone call from the run leader now to say nay or yay 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slowlycatchymonkey Posted May 20, 2022 Share Posted May 20, 2022 Not sure the weathers going to be good for some https://www.theguardian.com/world/2022/may/20/spain-braces-for-heat-wave-of-extraordinary-intensity Boring weekend for me mostly catching up on previously shirked responsibilities. Might try and get out for a ride and squeeze in a bit of experimental kitchen cos in a moment of mad boredom a couple of weeks ago I might have spent £50 on a Leg of Mutton, 100% grass fed hung for three weeks bit of Mutton but still probably not my finest spend 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What is this ‘shopping’ people go to do? Tortuous way to spend your time. Unless its bike shopping then thats completely different.. or getting supplies or gear for a trip.. or.. nope they’re the only types of shopping that are acceptable. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A few weeks later i was in the local pub three sheets to the wind telling my mates wife about it and she said mutton? mutton? and kept repeating it in disbelief she got on my nerves a bit so i said yes mutton like you Sue god i wish the ground had opened up i don't think she ever forgave me There's a bit more to the Turkish restaurant i may have to resurrect a thread for that story 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slowlycatchymonkey Posted May 21, 2022 Share Posted May 21, 2022 Panniers tuned up. I give them until the end of their first outing to get scuffed up and look tatty. Got a couple of bottle holders to go on the outside of the case (stopping and getting water out of a voluminous tightly strapped down bag did my noggin in after a few days) so my first job is to drill holes in my brand new panniers. Im thinking mañana 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We’ll see 🌧 The fixings look ok and the panniers have waterproof cases/liners in them so I’m not too bothered. The Andalucian sun is definitely a take as many layers off as possible type climate and wearing a hydration pack is too hot. Also not fond of cleaning them and dont like carrying the weight on my person (3litres is an extra 3kilos on your back). Plus its a bit of a faff bothering with one when you’re going to the supermarket to do a big shop. I’ll let you know how much it wrecks them after Ive ridden in the rain a bit The fixing system they’ve used allows you to unclip the water bottles and click a small jerry can in its place… I have one eye on Morocco 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
