Today's ride
Did a bracing 82km today with Mr Wafflycat. Went as far as Sandringham &
back (different routes there & back) and had soup & a roll in Betty's tea rooms. The weather was almost perfect. Bright sun, blue, cloudless sky, wind not too strong, dry. but *cold* with ice across the surface of many a village pond even in the middle of the day. On today's ride:- A white stag with several hinds running with him. Ducks going mad, calling "Me! Me! Me! Me!" at the pond in Massingham as I was feeding said feathered friends with bits of fruitcake. A barn owl flying alongside Mr Wafflycat & I as we cycled along a lane. The owl kept looking sideways at us as it flew along. A pair of Caterpillar boots neatly placed on a verge. A field with six hares in it. Loads of escapee hens from free-range runs in fields. Lots of free-range pigs - all heavily pregnant rooting about in fields. Clouds of seagulls following a tractor ploughing a field and feeding on the *things* being exposed in the newly turned earth. Poor Mr. Wafflycat was chilled to the bone by the time we got home, so I threw him into a hot bath to defrost. He is now crashed out on the sofa - poor lamb, he hasn't been on his bike for many a week and today wore him out. But I thoroughly enjoyed being out on a lovely pootle of the lanes with my nearest & dearest. One of the joys is having him cycle in front of me and I can ogle his rear end to my heart's content. One of the joys of cycling is what it does to a bloke's rear end in terms of toning and muscle. T'aint nuthin finer than a fit bloke's 4r$3 in Lycra. With a bit of luck I may be able to wheedle another 30-40km (at least) tomorrow. I hope so. |
