Sore head this morning ?
No I wasn't drinking. Sore heart with that bike though. Everything I did was a ballache won't go in to detail. All go an hour ago but going for 20 seconds and fault. Turns out I have broken the piddly speed sensor plug . Definitely gets harder doing fiddly stuff as I get older.
Yesterday rode 20 miles with Mrs in Venus Woods, Bepton Woods etc. in the South Downs. Hasn't rained for a quite a while so surprisingly free of mud. And an amazing thing happened ... the sun came out!!! 
No pics, but also did a bit of XC which was abandoned because of all the fallen trees, so stayed on the easy stuff.

Wife's also a paddle boarder so no problems with her 'shooders'
That's not nice, ferk!
What on earth happened to your Kiox? Did you set fire to it??It was a tad chilly on Sunday
Our 25m ride abandoned half way round due to a stick in a derailleur and a frozen freehub causing problems.
Thankfully I had plenty of life left in the battery at the end

My mate ended up peeing on it and it semi worked enough to get to lower ground and out of the windThat's not nice, ferk!
It's still got the protective plastic cover on it
So did he pee on Kiox or derailleur or maybe both.

Thanks for taking off the protective film. I was about to write a strongly worded letter.It's amazing what a bit of recycled Tetley's can do
This is just for you ladies with Kiox OCD worries

Here’s mine after almost 5 years.
I can’t find the same page but I have the same service indicator light (orange).
I'm ashamed to say that we have screen protectors on our (non-smart) Kiox displays.

Was that done more often in the past or how do you explain that it could freeze?
It froze because we were stood around for ages in freezing wind while one of the other riders was trying to mend his derailleur.Was that done more often in the past or how do you explain that it could freeze?
It was amusing watching him pedaling like hell without any forward movement
Well, usually there is oil and grease around but no water. I never heard that mechanics on a bike got frozen.It froze because we were stood around for ages in freezing wind while one of the other riders was trying to mend his derailleur.

But I know someone who peed in his combat boots in complete desperation because of severe blisters on his feet.

Does he use gravel as tyre fluid?
The size of that rock …a little big for proper torque spec…but the left-handed thread tightening is perfectAnd this fellow biker's is the correct way to tighten the Bosch chainring.
No fancy socket or torque wrench.
Just a bloody big rock

I'm not sure if it was a 5mm or 6mm alan key he was bashing to knock the locking nut round, but I'm glad I wasn't holding itThe size of that rock …a little big for proper torque spec…but the left-handed thread tightening is perfect

The good weather continues on the typically Wet Coast of Canada. Dog was in his element.
Temps have been below freezing at night and 3-4C during the day. Traction is superb.

Squamish is on our list. Watched a video on that long blue trail that would be perfect for the wife and I.
We usually visit the LBS in Squamish on our way to Whistler but never tried the trails. I think @KnollyBro rides there often.

So so many trails here. Better than Whistler in some respects. Certainly a longer riding season.
Well worth a stop.
