07/04/2016 A trip to the bike shop and a bird with a mission.

Maximum temperature 11C, minimum 3C.    29 km/h  NW  winds.  Rain not measured as yet.
The trip was planned early to miss the rain...

Nigel taking his bike in for a gear change problem - camera has the colour wrong it is bright red!!!

This was outside the shop...

I cannot imagine cycling with these tyres!

The forecast got it wrong!  Collecting the bike back one hour later and looking at the rain over Angouleme....

Driving home.

The rain cleared at home before returning later...

and I caught this Wood pigeon on a mission...

left, right, left.......

ah nice fresh water just been filled up....

that feels better....

on my way....

bye bye.

12/02/2016 Too much rain! Nigel buys a new bike.

Maximum temperature 12C, minimum 4C.   57 km/h W winds. 18 mm rain measured this morning. 276mm so far this year!
Driving to Champniers, the weather was foul....

Farmland at the side of the road, totally saturated.

Arriving at the cycle shop the rain stopped temporarily...

Take your pick in colours...

This looks more like a motorbike that a bicycle!

A very wide choice.

Nigel's new bike; anyone want to buy his old one?

As above.

Driving back home, the rain starts again....

Meeting up with a 2CV on a very wet road.
