MY DAY ON A BIKE RIDE

Today we decided to go on a bike ride. We left home and we went on our normal bike ride.I pedalled near the field,past the farm and on a bridge over the motorway,then we went on a fast hill,next we went up a hill,we went down another hill,it was very fast I had to use my brakes. Then we went up suffers lane,it is a very big hill and we had to go up it.It felt tiring,I pedalled without any help from my daddy.I made it to the top without stopping for the very first time. "Victory ! "


We went across a road.We went round a tight corner.Then we went past Grandmas house.We went down some bumps.We went past lots of houses and we went quite fast.Finally we arrived home.When we arrived home we were very tired.my name is Amy. I am 6.




VICTORY !

MUDDY FOX MAYHEM







"Like a circle in a spiral
Like a wheel within a wheel
Never ending or beginning
On an ever-spinning reel
As the images unwind
Like the circles that you find
In the windmills of your mind"*







Quick little spin today.on a 21 yr old bike.

Barn rd to the pike and back ,basically,with a slice of toast thrown in.

Mega mega windy up top,but after a quick walk down the back of the pike it was declared safe to descend.

Just like old times.Off the back ,Ice Cream Run,snakebite.


Plus ca change,plus c'est la meme chose.
Which is French for " it's the same bloody hill it always was"



'Retro ' pump proved incompatible with new type presta inner tube fitment.


Jeff says" way ay , back of pike in gale force winds ? I can dee that wi ' one leg tied behind wor back "
You'd be forgiven for thinking that i was on my own today . I wasnt. Alan came on the Gary Fisher HiFi,and had beans on toast for £2.70 . The last time he came it was 2/6d.Stuart came and had 2 toasted teacakes ,and Jeff had 1 toasted teacake. I had 2 rounds of toast and a pot of marmalade.
* I'm thinking of the Dusty Springfield version.
It just won the vote over "The circle of life " lion king song....
Ok ,gotta go ,my laptop battery's on the blink .Which just goes to prove ,you cant beat old shi
