1 year agoHaha, yes I was amazed she didn't see me! I made quite the sight running down the road waving the shoes in the air.
1 year agoYour shoes - A lot of people including me do use their rear view mirrors as much as they should!
1 year agoThanks Rachel - pleased you like them! Likewise I've been following your adventures in the UK and glad you had a good tour. British roads are definitely a mixed bag - our cycle infrastructure isn't too great compared to the continent, but when you get away from the traffic on the lanes it can make for pretty good touring. Rough roads and steep climbs may be unavoidable though!
1 year agoThanks! It's not too bad, I've been hobbling about a bit while walking but mostly it's just a bit of phantom pain in the leg and strangely doesn't affect cycling at all. Just got to ride everywhere and I'll be fine...
1 year agoSorry to hear about your back problems!
1 year agoGood to hear from you again. We recently completed 3 months bicycle touring in Great Britain which included Devon. I read your journal about rides you did during Covid and loved them. Also, it semi prepared me for how tough the riding would be between rough roads and extremely steep climbs (Lake District being the toughest).

It definitely brightens things up! I really need to get my camera sorted out - the hope of fixing it has dissuaded me from getting a new one, but I never get round to mending it either...
