Daughter thinks these are throwaway pisstake birthday gifts. Not at all. I'll be wearing the T Shirt with pride. (It's only a theory until it's proved to be fact) Happy Guinness Day/St Patrick's Day/old git's birthday day.

*pressure wash Bloody autocorrect 🤨

Just went to pursue wash the Welsh muck off the bike. Pressure washer not working. Changed the fuse in the plug. Not that. I'm going in for a closer look. Electricity and water. What can possibly go wrong 😬

The older I get, the colder I get. Kit this weekend, skin to outside Thin T-shirt Alpinestars heated vest (on max) 2 thermal layers (1 long sleeve, one short) Fleece jumper Oxford windproof RST ProSeries jacket with liner. And I still get cold 😩

That's been a good weekend.

Tapas, Rioja and a book. It's been a good day 😃

Gin o'clock. At Hay Distillery

It's turning into a cracking day. Look at that sky 😍

Coffee and a warm up

Up the Black Mountain Pass. It's warming up.

🥶🥶

That'll keep me going for the day. (and most of tomorrow I reckon)

I used to install beer pipes, coolers, cellar and bar equipment. Wales was one of the places I spent a lot of time. With an A-Z. Cos sat-nav wasn't a thing. I got lost. A lot. A bit like I'll be doing over this weekend 🤣🏍️

Butty Bach

But not heading up the Gospel Pass

Out and about in Wales

🏍️☕️😎

Mrs G is taking her mum away for a couple of days this weekend. Which means I get 2 clear days on the bike. So do I do a couple of medium loops and sleep in my own bed or one big loop with an overnighter? And which direction from slap bang in the middle of the country?

Turns out I'm not that wierd after all. (I also do peanut butter and Marmite on toast 😎)
