So Windy Almost Dangerous
Before sitting on the bike I was tossing whether to ride today or not. So windy just standing on the road was a struggle. Riding into a strong headwind I enjoy, it's like resistance training. A tai...
Night and Day
Today was a stunner, after the morning fog dissipated there was nothing but blue sky and no wind. Time to go out for a serious ride, to check out this "revitalised" bike. This was a Mid-day ride an...
