Took the long bike out, up the drag to Bath road, along the ridge at the top, then down Cranbury hill. Followed the Oxford road, moving among the stationary traffic.
Got to the pet shop, loaded up 20 kgs of wild bird seed (the husk free mix) and headed up Norcot road, famous for Ekimovs descent for the win in the 98 Prutour. The extra 20 kgs on a 20 kgs bike was entertaining, but I managed it in the big ring. Loads of House Sparrows twittering in the gardens of the council houses all the way up the climb. Then down the Meadway and on to the Bath road, then back home. 6 miles.
Must get out more
