Where did you ride today?

[Upt' North]

Nice 520km baptism of fire for a new back tyre...all twisty roads, and even took in a gravel road for S&G. Normally I don't mind a bit of gravel but there was about 5km that was freshly laid and deep and was no fun at all. The bike was brilliant but the undercarriage took a bit of a pounding; probably need to pull the brake pedal back up a bit. The weather was bright and blue but a tad blustery, and the threatened heavy showers arrived 5 minutes after I arrived back home. Job done!

Rode in 3 different countries today: started in France, rode through Andorra (a gas station & duty-free store with a few ski hills) and then into Spain.

Kind of cool riding today, temps around 15°C (about 60°F) though much cooler in the higher elevations of Andorra.

Nice to only have to spend USD $40 on a fill-up in Andorra, compared to USD $55 to fill the tank in France.

Must be the gorse that my helpful forebears decided to bring as a hedging plant. Now it's out of control and quite invasive, as are all the other deer, rabbits, ferrets, stoats and other assorted pest species.

We drove through Andorra back in the '80s. Cold and foggy is what I remember.

Yeah, that about sums the place up. It's going to be either cold & foggy, or cold & raining, or cold & snowing, or (rarely) cold & sunny. It's a pretty high-altitude place, and the sun doesn't shine in the bottom of the valleys until pretty late in the morning.

I rode 35 miles east to avoid the encroaching haze of clouds to watch the eclipse. About a hundred miles today.

Should have parked the bike just a little farther to the left! Would have made for a neat effect with the mural.
