Seen the weather forecast yesterday for up here and decided to text my manager and ask for today off, pretty jammy considering I had Friday off
But it was no problem as we are relatively quiet the last few weeks.
After fettling with a couple of the machines this morning, I thought rather than take the LHT out for a DIY Audax I would instead take the old faithful Pugsley out for a bit of beach work. Especially since I was due to meet Caleb, Heather and some friends later after lunch at the beach at Dunnet. It was the kids last day of holidays so they were all meeting at the beach for a play round.
I just rode around the shore playing on the rocks and sand, putting in a few miles along the beach first the riding westward picking lines along the slab rock and rock pools. Left home around midday and got home around 4.30/5.00. Good to be back out on the Pugs and just ride for the sake of riding. It was about 20 odd degrees and the sun was quite warm, so a good call to ditch work.
The kids loved their time on the beach as well, they were there from 11am through till 5 so a good way to finish the holidays. They had about 11 kids, which while not sounding like much was just over half of the kids in his school
Hope others may have had the chance to enjoy some late summer sun as well.
