Incoming Photos
AÂ couple of weeks ago, we went up to the Lake district to join the LYPWG for their Christmas weekend. Richard knew most of the people there, but it was my first time to meet them all. It was also my first time in the Lake District.Â
As the photos show, the conditions when we walked (the photos are from a walk we weren’t on, but I bet our photos would look similar) were not much fun. However, hindsight is a wonderful thing, and I now look back  on a fun weekend. The fancy dress party certainly helped!
I’ve uploaded a photo album.Â

Back on the bike
I’ve had a lazy couple of years on my bikes. They’ve spent more time in the cycle shop being maintained than with me riding them! A couple of times this year I’ve tried to get back into the habit of cycling regularly, and I use a little loop near my home.
It’s seven miles, and I can easily tell if I’m very unfit – I fail to get all the way up Wimbledon Hill without stopping. Today may have taken 40 minutes, but I did make it all the way without a stop. Hopefully I can get back in to the habit of regular cycling this time. I should be able to get that time down a bit…
