Never really known whether to post here or rat bikes

it gives a zen like connection with the road

Phil Whitehurst's series I did last year all started in Stevenage, all great routes and very accessible by train from King's Cross. The 300 can be shortened to 200.

Can confirm, this is such a good ride. Would be hard pressed to find another 60km of such silky smooth and empty roads

Last minute decision, but friend and I doing this tonight if anyone's up for a wonderful warm summers evening out in the best of Essex. 19:18 Liverpool St, 23:02 back

Always find this guy's guests and conversations facilitating, but this episode really nails what we're facing for a livable future.

A bit late, but can catch up if not there on time

Hoping for a swell during the Olympics waiting period, could be some Jamaican bob sleigh type stories for instance with the 14 year old Chinese girl who qualified. In the meantime, this was a warmup yesterday, pity this swell came a couple weeks early.

I'm scheduled to be arguing with someone from the council's noise team on Thursday evening :/

Ha! Well, probably then

Ways not to lock your penny farthing, at work today

No, there was sposed to be another one. All good, home by just after 12. So can confirm route works in all respects.

That routes a keeper, loved it. Thanks so much @rhowe sorry thought I heard you say you were going to get the train so we raced off. Made it just in time for the cancelled train.

Despite what I said before I've been making excellent progres with my ribs. Still makes a bit of crunchy/clicking when coughing but the pain almost gone (when cycling). So could be in! These long evenings don't last long.

This was it, the scenic route:

I'd be in for a ride back somewhere. Have done back to Southend before which was an interesting route, had two boat trips! Never ridden from Dunwich to Cambridge so would be up for that too.

Long excuse incoming...
About 15 years ago on a remote shallow reef off a jungle in Indonesia I was obliterated by a thick solid 15ft wave landing on my back, ripping the intercostal muscles of my bottom rib. While mostly healed, this has been a niggle since then. I had a really bad cough the past few weeks, so violent that it feels like I've been put back pretty much back to square one for the injury. Good news is riding a bike is actually ok, as long as I don't pull hard going uphill or whip skid. I couldn't help myself this last Sunday what with the perfect weather and went out to Welwyn to try out a variation of that route. It was glorious. But I was very slow, and feel like those hills are not doing me any good.
Anyways, wish I could be a out there, probably shouldn't in the near future at least.
This is what could be:

Pocketcasts looks pretty close to google podcasts, thanks that'll do

Recommend me a podcast player please. All I want is something to replace Google podcasts, so simply show the feed of my subscriptions chronologically and a small bit of info on each show. Basically just do the same Google podcasts now.

Chess Valley yesterday, from sunny to this in half an hour

Saw The zone of interest last night in a very quiet cinema. Most horrific 12A movie ever. Can't stop thinking about it.

I'll take em, pm'd
