Brilliant ride out of Rothbury today with Wayne & Jaco ..
Very grateful to Wayne for insisting that he wanted to ride because at 7.00am this morning sticking my nose out of the front door into a dark ,wet , freezing cold morning ..I was 90% certain I didn't want to venture out today ..that would have been tragic as we happened upon an excellent new trail ( at least it will be when the weather turns & it dries out)..which looked as if it had been used recently for an Enduro event ..very slidey & muddy today though .
Cheers lads

The River Amber had flooded again and it's only November.
That's not a good sign
Didn't the Peak District have a month's rain on Friday?

And in other news….this magnet fell off the fridge and made me smile
It must be pretty bad if you're having to resort to the laces technique to wipe your arse

Stick it back together with a deliberately bodged repair!
Later edit: The Japanese have a special name for deliverately visible repairs. They believe that it makes the object more beautiful.
ChatGPT says:
The technique is called kintsugi (金継ぎ), which means “golden joinery.”
It’s the Japanese art of repairing broken pottery with lacquer mixed with powdered gold, silver, or other metals — celebrating the breakage rather than hiding it.

Looking forward to actually getting out and being able to take some photos of my bike and the trails tomorrow after a month off the bike thanks to more surgery on my beautiful face.

Ahhhh… I’d forgotten about ice on top of wet leaves, on top of wet acorns, on top of wet mud. As a result I nearly had an unscheduled bracing dip in the canal
Someone has left a bike there

It’s a very wealthy area so that’s the sort of flytipping we get.
Carry a lot of needless things but a buoyancy aid is not one of them. Has your heartbeat returned to normal yet.
