Lunch time cycle

 

Waking up early this morning it was a matter of killing time until it was warm enough to go for a ride. The last time I went out my feet were frozen by the time i got home so I’ve given it a couple more weeks. 

It was just after 11 I started getting ready mixing my high 5 drink and getting the gels and the lights together in one place, it was long finger gloves today. 

I went out got on and went for it there was a slight wind in the air but it wasn’t that cold heading out of town the traffic was light and even in the shade it was still warm. I headed towards Maidenhead and then turned for Ascot and past the polo fields before heading home. When I got to the 18 mile mark my lack of cycling over the last six months was catching up with me and my legs were like lead weights pulling me down. I managed to navigate back through Windsor infuriating all the traffic on the way. The last two miles from Langley to home were a grind my legs were gone lucky it’s flattish only two bridges to get over. 

It was nice to get out and experience some real exercise, I’m hoping the weather improves and I can make this a regular thing. 

Have fun stay safe πŸ‘πŸΌ

Sales, shopping and storms

Image
  Last night I listed some of the golf balls on eBay, the Titleist Pro V1’s and the TruFeel’s. Now it’s a crowded market on eBay so I placed them on promotion to be listed top. This morning I had sold both listings not for much but it’s a start.  After a quick visit to Tesco it was down to the local parcel shop to send them off.  It was an afternoon of preparing more golf balls to be listed and then a quick walk up Rowley lane and a big haul of 28 balls. When I inspected them at home three of the more valuable ones had small splits so we’re condemned to the bin.  I’ll keep you posted on more sales, have fun stay safe πŸ‘πŸΌ

Afternoon walk

Image
  It was an afternoon walk, I headed up to Rowley path as I feel there might have been a few Christmas golfers. I made it up to the top of the path and back. I found 11 balls today which was good going. The farmer had also been out with the chainsaw making the path safe by cutting some fallen trees. He’d left a can of two stroke petrol/oil mix near the tree so I grabbed it and left it on a fence post near to the farm for them to find in the daylight. It was a nice walk, I’ve finished Phoenix and I’m onto a new book so look out for a bad review.  Have fun stay safe πŸ‘πŸΌ
