A very poor year for me.
I had a lovely ride with Jane in January, but for a variety of reasons that was the only time we have ridden together this year.
In Feb, Mrs. Wow, Ruthie and I went to Alnmouth for a weekend. We had one very good ride which culminated in us taking a taxi for the last bit, to Berwick. That was all too short. I'd like to do more of that sort of thing.
There were one or two very local rides which were memorable for the unseasonably warm weather. Here's a photo of Southend sea front taken on 9th March.
Mrs. Wow and I went to Mull, a trip which was marred by Mrs. Wow's asthmatic reaction to histamine/early season midge bites. The weather was lovely, but I did a lot of riding on my own, which wasn't so much fun.
We had a good week in Kempen with Auntie Helen. This is Mrs. Wow in AH's Velomobile.
Andrij guided me on an excellent day out along the Lee Navigation, from Stratford to Hertford. This was a splendid ride, almost entirely off road, and was probably my pick of the year.
And the following week it all stopped when I injured my leg. I've done less than 50 miles since the middle of August.
