Looking the opposite direction and one of the 100 'Iron men' statues being a part of the Anthony Gormley installation art exhibition along the local beach.

What next? Continue I guess as still need to do so for this diabetes prevention program.

Very pleased though and the highlight of my day
Well done Chris, proper job! :)

A nice addition to the bike garage. A Specialized bike for Mrs Satanfriendly for over in Yorkshire. A £105 bargain from Ebay. Pretty immaculate condition and nice and lightweight at 10.6Kg. More important she loves it and already has a few miles in.

That's an absolute bargain!
 
Been away for a bit, and dogsitting for a friend. Shocked to see it's a month since my last ride..!

A quick short 'n steep outing yesterday 29km 270m climbing.

Another puncture! A thorn this time. Nothing for years then two in a row. Somehow I must have angered the god of punctures.

Soon I'll be off up north for my New York - Moscow run. Or a long New York - Moscow walk if I don't figure out how to appease the puncture gods.

637km distance 2480m climbed

Just under the 1000 mile mark since started this challenge and around 2700 miles since I got my arse back on the bike in March.

More important for me I've lost around 3 stone 6lbs, blood pressure has improved no end to 135/70 and hopefully my next blood tests will show improvements. Exceptionally happy on this side of life.
