The weekend is coming and it's time for a bath.
So then, it's the last bank holiday weekend of the year, weather looks a bit mixed and it's starting to feel much colder of an evening ... what's everyone got planned? Owt exciting?

Absolutely nothing! 12 hours after recovering from the heatstroke i had four weeks ago I came down with a viral infection which lasted three weeks then severly bruised my ribs loading a horse into a horsebox then came down with a chest infection so am now on antibiotics. Only gentle riding for now on doctors orders. Still, could be worse .s8tannorm wrote: ... what's everyone got planned? Owt exciting?

My Hunka XL should be in the post.
I'm on the count down for a grading in Jiu Jitsu.
And my dislocated pinkie is healing fast.
I've got nearly 170hrs worth of holidays still to take.

Re: The weekend is coming and it's time for a bath.
Weather permitting I'll be trying out a new route for me, south of Trawsfynydd. It should tick the box for my 8/8 bivvy a month. And I might do a vid aswell, and try out the cable cam

Re: The weekend is coming and it's time for a bath.
Oooooh ... completely forgot its the ManChild's 11th birthday tomorrow and he will finally get his new BMX bicycle like object. Most of tomorrow will be spent at our local BMX track or a jump spot. In anticipation Ive been getting all nostalgic for Tuff wheels, fluted seatposts and Goldstem goosenecks and feel another project coming on - 1980s BMX revival about to happen in South Bucks.
I'm just going outside ...

Family camping on a site in Nether Wasdale.
Re: The weekend is coming and it's time for a bath.
Driving back from Scotland holidays
Done some riding but it's not gone to plan with one thing and another.
Plenty 1day rides, not enough multi-days
Just how it goes I suppose
As my old schools reports used to say
Must try harder

Re: The weekend is coming and it's time for a bath.
I've only got Sunday night to go out and play but I think it'll be a mini road tour to and from a campsite rather than 'proper' bikepacking. It'll be my first camping trip since last summer.
Re: The weekend is coming and it's time for a bath.
taking the family down to Legoland for the weekend, kids are really looking for to it and if I'm honest so am I !
Wait for me...

Re: The weekend is coming and it's time for a bath.
I had planned to get out for my first bivi in months this weekend (it's not a bank holiday here but I'm self-employed so I'll just ring in sick) but.....
At the moment I'm living in a tiny hospital room with my 3 year old who's got some weird lump on her neck and so she, and therefore me (currently the only non-breastfeeding parent), are bedridden for the next few days.
Hoping to be home tomorrow but we'll have to see what the lump has to say about my bivi plans - bugger!
(Note: we've been assured that it's nothing serious which is why I'm so flippant about my tiny child being hospitalised)
