A short ride

Todays planned century was cancelled so I let myself sleep till I woke up. Then since it was early I decided to meet my friends who were riding at Rivi. Took me ages to be bothered leaving so I asked them to text and let me know the route and I would bump into them somewhere, as it turns out I got to Ros's house and they hadn't left as they hadn't fancied the weather!

A short ride up to pigeon tower, down the ice-cream run and then back up and down the Belmont descent, before I peeled off to get another hour in.

On the way back I came across a dear on the track, he stood looking at me for a while before bounding off. Camera decided it needed the flash so I wasn't quick enough for the picture.

In the end I did 2hrs 45mins which took me to 30 hours for the week - wow! Don't think I was much company was in a grumpy mood! But thanks as otherwise I wouldn't have gone out!

    Nice to hear about the deer, saw one myself yesterday in the Lakes. It was standing looking at me in the middle of a field in bright sunshine!

    Hi trio.

    Sorry for postponing the century ride. Good on you for getting out anyway - it was pretty wet and windy over here and I was glad not to be out in it!

    Was pretty horrible here, I was glad not to be on the road and very glad not to be doing a century ride!
