day17

off work to recover today, long-ish dozy lie in, then up for a non-fried breakfast for the first time in three days. try to resurrect old laptop without success, so hopes of new mtb frame dashed.

head out for a braefoot scoot and forget the made in bed plan to aim east to explore some RoWs to the east of town. along to aberdour and remember about the trail which runs from the flower pots at the foot of the muur van humbie back into unknown territory. turns out to be a wee gem which climbs back up onto the cliff high over the railway/coastal path. east end of it drops very steeply back down to FCP, so it's an out and back before heading to braefoot to have a wee play amongst the remains of the WWII gun emplacements, then down to the old pier, up and out towards home again.

You could have always gotten a laptop though the work scheme, the closing date for which was today... :-/

Sounds like the demo day went okay.

had a look at the work scheme and it didn't seem like a great deal.

demo day was excellent. 150ish riders, bike companies and Patrick seemed very pleased with venue & tonnes of folks out riding. much better fun than endless, crappy battles against the you-know-who.
