Mrs 26 got back early today so we went for a little ride around the lanes. She took me down the dead end at Clevelode which is something I've only done a couple of times. It was very peaceful on the River bank. She then took me down another dead end to Pixham Ferry which was equally peaceful as we sat and watched the river flow by. Finally she got the bit between her teeth and put the hammer down into the head wind on Jennet Tree Lane. I suggested we stop and look at the Polish Pilot's memorial stone. Always makes me think as he gave his life for us in 1941. Then Mrs 26 put some more power down and we made it back before the showery stuff started.

Nice little ride out with my better half today. Now I have an appointment with some very big hills on Sunday as my next ride will be the Wild Wales Challenge. \o/

    I have to say 26, you put you life in safe hands with Mrs 26! I'm not sure about all this dead end stuff but she clearly knows what to do with a bike!!

    @Dale. This year's WWC is 83 miles. The finish is up and over the Bwlch Y Groes - a mega tough steep lump of pain! http://www.wildwaleschallenge.com/ Oh - and yes she pulled but I didn't make her she volunteered!!! :-)

    At least she did not lead you astray 26. Hope this weekends ride is not too hard on the old bones. Ride safely my friend.

    Every now and then we probably all need someone who'll make us go down a dead end just to enjoy the peace and quiet that might be found there. Mrs 26 seems to have good timing, too.
    Fun and success on the Wild Wales Challenge.
