Out with Mark this morning 22nd of June and it felt more like the 22nd of December, as we went down a descent from Harbour Hill I swear our faces were being pelted by hailstones, needless to say we cut the ride short and headed home with a still credible 18 miles!
Saturday was a better biking day and Barrie, Clive and I did a monster Pentlands ride which ended up with Barrie and me fully draining our batteries!
Clive’s bike developed a problem midweek in that the chain ring came loose due to the fixing device unscrewing, this would appear to be a design fault as it has a left hand thread to secure it and the bike is propelled by the pedals turning in the opposite direction. However a combination of foul language, some thread lock and a hammer and small punch appears to have solved the problem meantime.
Hopefully there’s some warmer weather on the way or I’ll be digging out the winter long johns!
