T'was a belting night 👏👏👏

A bike resting on a bench on the top of a hill looking over Wirksworth, Derbyshire. Green grass and blue skies... Summer is coming!

A tough winter with hand surgery on NYE leading to most of my riding being done indoors, the time has come to get back in the Derbyshire hills and gain some strength back.
Those hills were a shock to the system 😂😂

Nice one 💕

It's been heading that way since Reagan/Thatcher.
I'd rather we didn't.

Just catching Björk/Sugarcubes then bed...
6am alarm.
Do love her though.. 💕

😂😂

Still got my Dead or Alive and Hi Energy 12s.. 🤯

I reckon I'd have loved the tunes as well. Should've come with you.
I was already in love with house music, soul, funk.

Now on TOTP1990.
Bad bmx accident and started clubbing properly. No more "now and then"
Full bore.
Some of the best nights of my life. 💕

😂😂
Oh yeah. You, Craig, @steamhead.bsky.social
Prog rock crew.

I loved pretty much anything that made me feel like dancing.
Weird, cos I always felt embarrassed to dance in public.

😂 Staple wear back then.
I'm just trying to work out how I got from my love of Two Tone to ADORING Joyce Sims.

Music. The great Leveller.

School rucksacks galore.

Now onto Dave Gahan with those old style metal diamond studs on his sleeves.

Yeomans army store?

On it.
Seems I appreciate Blow Monkeys more than I did back then.
More soulful than I remember.
Is that a bmxer on his jumper? 🤔

Must be next episode?
Just at Kurtis Blow!

We're on catch up... And piss taking after a couple of snifters.

Stunning day for a walk 💕
Already preferring February over January 😂

Last #doddieaid ride of the New Year with Sir Chris Hoy.
It was a tough one on Muckle Yin route at his pace! 🥵

Made something to look forward to every weekend of the toughest month of the year. 👌

🤣

C'mon January.
Hurry up and f**k off.

Feels like lockdown all over again.

We've still got the boy at home full time and daughter in the uni hols so struggle to put much in there.
Dual too.

We still use our "conventional" for a lot of stuff.
Air fryer is too small really.

Ours has made my son actually "cook" for himself.
His diet is pretty crap to be honest, but at least he's giving it a go.

Just need him to clean the bloody thing after he's used it now..

Jayzus Mark!
Hope the results are happy ones 🤞

That must've been a shock!
Hope things OK.
All the best.

Dear TNT,
I have little to zero interest in most of those sports listed.

Now what?

Regards,

I don't really watch other sports since "pay per view" became a costly thing.
Didn't mind a few quid to watch cycling, but that price hike is not sustainable.
I can't see the ones paying for the football will have any interest in the cycling.

Well, that's the pins out.
NYE surgery to pin a dislocated 4th metacarpal.
How's everyone else's January been? 🤣

Can't wait to get back to "normal" and put some miles in on the bike.
Still gonna be @gozwift.bsky.social for a while but hopefully pulling on the bars instead of resting.. 🚵
