Just under 80km this morning with clubmate Ash. We headed west towards , into a 30kph headwind, then turned just after to head east with a stop at Ice Cream Farm (near ). Three triathletes were there, one still had their number on the seat post! After coffee we headed home with a nice tailwind, in time to catch stage 2 of the . Top morning.

Just under 80km today with , an easy, flat(ish) ride through north . The only serious climb of the day was up and the are at the top of the climb so a great place to stop for coffee and to refuel. And it gave Emidio the chance to take the obligatory selfie of us all (L-R Jon, Dan, Paul, me, Ash, Emidio). From there it was mainly downhill back to East . Lots of laughs, sun, no rain and good times!

Another excellent Dukinfield CC ride, this time to Farm Made Tearooms at , with Jane and Paul Nyland, Danny and Emidio. The cafe is in a glorious setting, near the bottom of . And you get the chance to see . The only drawback today was my chain snapping at the bottom of the Climb Of Doom, a.k.a. . I managed to get that sorted but walked up the climb as I didn't want to risk using my excessive wattage again in case I snapped it one more time. So that's a new chain and cassette I'll be ordering..

About 10km from home on Sunday (I'd done @ 93km around the lanes by this point) I nabbed a shot of the Phil Foden mural on the corner of Wycliffe Street and George's Road in Stockport. For scale, I rested Osgar the Orro by our Phil. Phil is #47 for Manchester City FC and a lad. He's a top, top, top player. Mural by MANCHESTER MURALS (so it says!).

I did my longest ride since the end of October earlier. 40km round trip. The halfway point was the top of what we call "The Horse and Jockey" climb, which is the road that goes from to the junction with the A62, road. That's where this image was taken. I put the 40mm tyres back on my the other week and they still sing! It was great to get out with two riding buddies, Lauren and Dougie, too. 2 hours of fun and not too many cars about. Love it!
