Sometimes a blast around local trails is the best ride. E fat bike today.

My e fat bike in the foreground on the leaf strewn banks of a local stream.

Panorama mode image of my e fat bike front wheel and tyre. Somehow made it look like it was in motion.

Blimey Marcus Ryder saying the BBC's agenda is based on far-right opinions. Too true.

A woman is killed by a man every 3 days in the UK...

78% are murdered by a partner/ex

Yet not once have I heard Reform talk about this

Not once have I heard them back measures to protect women’s safety

In fact, they voted against them...

Noticed how vinyl owners invariably include an image of their (usually expensive) turntable in pics of their 'now playing' vinyl record.

Are they a bit insecure compared to us cd-ers?

Acoustic fat bike ride up to Farley Mount. Windy but warm.

Panoramic view from Farley Mount across green fields north to Wherwell. The sky is half white cloud and blue sky.

12th century Farley church framed by a blue sky and white clouds. My fat bike in the foreground.

Asylum seekers, housed in hotels in Manchester, are reaching out in their own words to address the concerns of the local community.

Please take a minute to read their letter, & share it with the people in your life who need to hear the truth about the people they are protesting.
