Getting old. Or not so

Postby das bike u1100s » Sun Jun 13, 2021 8:54 pm

You know summers arrived properly, when the smell of 6 week old road kill enters your helmet! Choice.
Enjoyable brisk 100 mile ride on the old girl today. Took in box Hill, remarkable like Bournemouth these days seeing the old folk walking round, checking out the bikes they rode In their youth. Chewing the fat...
Never touched it, honest!

Having moved from Surrey to Norfolk, I've noticed a definite change in road kill species. In Surrey it was usually a fox squished on the road, whereas here in Norfolk, it's predominantly muntjac deer and pheasants, with the occasional hare. All the foxes seem to have buggered off to the big cities. I have yet to thoroughly explore the biking roads of Norfolk, but I'm guessing there won't be too many alpine passes to practice zig-zagging over.
You really need only two tools: WD-40 and duct tape. If it doesn't move and it should, use WD-40. If it moves and shouldn't, use the tape.
