A photo of the cyclist as a shadow of his present self.

What another fantastic sunny day, up bright and early for another brisk ride via Rome, Wham and Rathmell.

Pen-Y-Ghent and Fountains Fell from Rathmell (just look at that blue sky).  Went into town as it is market day and bumped into loads of people to chat to so was out longer than I intended. Have booked my bike in at 3 peaks Cycles for a full strip down, rebuild and general preparation for the real event.

Former Greenfoot Elderly Persons Home now only a pile of rubble.
Strange to see where I used to work now gone it was a great place with a great staff team and while it is sad in many ways that it is no longer there we can hope that the replacement, Limestone View Extra Care scheme, will be even better.

Tomorrow a longer ride.
