We went through some really heavy showers but as it wasn’t cold we didn’t bother to shelter. When we got back we had another coffee and cheese and biscuits for lunch. The miles we did today made this the best October since I began recording my miles in 2005. We had a glass of wine and I soaked my bruises in a nice warm bath.

We met our daughter on the track and off we all went, in the pouring rain, to ride along the first section of the new N D R which was open to cyclists, walkers, joggers etc before it opens to traffic next month. It was great, a really fast road but a pity about the weather. We saw a beautiful rainbow. When we got home we had a bath and a glass of wine. And I knitted again  till it was time for me to cook dinner. We had steak pie, potatoes and peas. I am now going to watch tv in bed and I am looking forward to S C D results.

H made us a coffee and when we had drunk it we got ready to go out on our bikes. When we got to the new bridge the men were working on it and had a van and a lorry on it. H managed to ride past but as I got to the 2 men I got to a bit of soft soil and my wheel slipped off the tarmac and I fell off. It was so embarrassing! H was really angry,you would think I did it on purpose! The 2 men rushed to pick me up, I said I was fine and got away as fast as possible. I hurt my left heel, right knee, right elbow,arm and shoulder. We carried on and after a couple of miles I was fine. On the way back we had to cross a road which is at the bottom of a sandy slope. I don’t know how it happened put one minute I was going down and the next I flew over the handlebars. I can’t believe I fell off twice in one day!! I really hurt myself the second time, I have a lump on my left knee, another one on my right thigh another huge bruise with a cut at the top of my leg a huge bruise on my back and both my hands are still numb. However saying all that it’s only pain and I shall be going out on my bike again tomorrow.

Next I hung out the washing, came in and drained the blackberries out of my blackberry whiskey. Then I changed into my cycle gear, took my bike out of the garage and went for a ride. The plan was to go and look for some sloes so I could make some sloe gin. When I left home it was nice and bright so I left mt washing out blowing madly on the line. I had done about 4 miles when the sky turned black, the wind was blowing a gale and it was hard work biking. I still hadn’t found any sloes so I battled on.( the things we do for our kids !!!!) well the skies opened and threw the rain down on me in sheets, I got soaked through to the skin my hair was dripping down my back and I was frozen. I found some sloes so it was not all in vain. As I couldn’t get any wetter I also stopped and gathered some chestnuts 🌰.

Well there was a terrific bang and a flash with flames and sparks and all our power went off! H had been riding for over an hour and was doing well then he lost it all!!!
