Ride entry, last few weeks

Do I have to go out?
This is a steed

Dusk ’til Dawn kind of satisfied my riding urge in much the same way that Mountain Mayhem kills it at the end of June. In June I get over it by taking a week out surfing. Dusk ’til Dawn coincided with bringing the thing above out of fields and back into stables which means that the day is top and tailed with 45 minutes physical work at the stables. If it’s 6 of the clock that’s where you’ll find me. a.m. or p.m.

At the rate we’ve been getting through the sloe gin I’ll need to put some more on. You can see the hipflask at the front of the saddle there. It’s capacity puts the mountain biking ones to shame. Luckily I found a whole hedgerow of sloes just the other morning. Maybe I’ll go back out there on two wheels with a Timbuk 2.

Enforced layoff has its benefits

New Order, Confusion, German promo on green vinyl
It should be Everything’s Gone Green

Not being able to ride I have sorted out the spare room as a home office from which to run the business. As part of that I have set up a record deck on one side of the desk, and several feet of vinyl sits to my left.

You can’t create and enjoy a playlist in iTunes that is based solely on vinyl colour.

I make no apologies for the 80s.
