The fastest I've ever been until recently was 45km/h down a local 20% on a hybrid years ago, I had speed wobble then as well 😬💩. Beat that 3 weeks ago going down off the Oerddrws pass into Dolgellau doing 57km/h 🚴‍♂️💨💨💨💨

Yep, I didn't imagine it. The date was 2134. Here's a theory.... #GhostbustersAfterlife

Ghostbusters: 2134 and What It Could Mean?

The question fans of Ghostbusters: Afterlife should be asking: Will 2134 play a part in the sequels somehow?

Has anyone else noticed when they were down in the mine, as they read out the dates there was another one after 2021?
I didn't catch what the date was, but I'm pretty sure there was another date there #GhostbustersAfterlife

Despite my stance on doing anything longer than 100km in winter, I've also thought of a way to ECE the Festive Fifty up to 200km if that's at all possible 🤔 #cycling #audax #festive50 #festive500

3/3 Knowing Andy Corless, there'll be a few hills as well. But I'm going to make a long weekend out of it to explore a bit more of Lancashire and Yorkshire #cycling #audax

2/3 The Lancashire Lights is a bit out of my comfort zone at 200km in November. There's bound to be some night riding even if the weather's fair on roads I don't know.... 🧵 #cycling #audax

I've been doing some booking today. Someone's going to be busy if I get to all these & I hope so.
The ones marked * I've done before. The B in B I've lost count of, the other 2 were done last year.
I'm particularly looking forward to the Lancashire Lights.... 1/3 🧵 #cycling #audax

I know the one, Batcombe climbs up onto Cranborne Chase, I think. Might be the same one as is on Sunseekers. I don't know the one near Whitchurch, but there's a lot like that around there anyway.

Blimey, if I'd have done the Old Rail Trails, we'd have been back the same time 🐢🤣

I'm guessing that sign is at the Yeovil railway museum & you haven't taken an 86 mile detour 🤣

That shop is pretty good, I used to pop in there with the van in my last job when I was delivering to the King's School up the road 🧀😋

Is that one before or after Alfred's Tower? That one's bloody mental! 😳

Is there a way to turn off AI imagery specifically? If there isn't, there should be.
I've seen a lot of these images and videos lately and they take away the purity of the originals. As I've explained on other social media platforms, there are other ways to enhance an image than resort to AI.

I either catch their attention when they are near or wander brazenly up to the bar/counter/kitchen door and call out "Oi!.."*

*I don't really say that

Wells Mells & broader, I'm guessing?
I'd have been on the Old Rail Trails today if I'd got my act together this week.
There's always the Seaside Delight next weekend, although I was going to get the train up there, but there's engineering work on the other side of Weston, FFS 🙄

Friends! Today is #WorldMentalHealthDay ❤️
Sometimes we all need something to cling to. Whenever Mum walks past Percy, he reaches out and grabs her. Almost re-enacting the day he reached out to be rescued when he was 5 weeks old. If you feel you need help, reach out. We are here if you need friends ❤️

An added note. I was looking at getting the train to Bristol for next weekends Seaside Delight audax. However, engineering work means I can't travel up and back on the day as they've replaced the train with a bus between Weston-super-Mare and Bristol 🙄 #cycling #bikesontrains
