I had two weeks in Thailand, most of it hanging out with my old uni mate Paul Kenny and his lovely wife Panadda. I slept for two days on arrival. It’s just too easy for me to sleep right now but I’m sure I needed it. Well, after a couple of days, I was more …
This week in the UK was a little rushed but a load of fun seeing everyone. It was a sociable week and Banksy was still doing his animal related street art. It started on arrival at the BnB where I left my bike and gear and headed out with Minou to catch up with Tom …
Todays ride on Komoot Let’s start with an apology for there not being many photos today. There wasn’t much to photograph. I really just wanted to get to the terminal and onto the ferry.

Today’s ride on Komoot I’m definitely winding down. Yesterday was Sunday, so I didn’t have enough food for breakfast. No problem, usually every place has an open boulangerie. Usually, but not in Corbie today. The only option for breakfast was the Auchan supermarket. I wasn’t in the mood to make breakfast. Last night I discovered …
