Over last few days Scott said come doon for a Sportive. ... I - upgraded him to the 89 mile version. Start finish from Silverstone. Great day despite weather. See Strava for detail. Great 38 hrs. Back knackered. Thank god AFF mon. - Posted using BlogPress from my iPhone

Left home at 425am on Sunday morning. Dark and pissing of Rain. 3 hours later I entered the village of Coniston in the Southern Lake District. Registered and then the rain started. I thought that yeah it will go off, did it hell. - Rained for all 59 miles, some torrential. Just let myself get wet obv lol, sometimes it was refreshing but got s bit irritating and slowed me down massivley. Some nice sights on route, would have been much more enjoyable if the rain was left but thats your luck. Great day, went back via Keswick, a great day out. Next weekend Silverstone and an 84 mile bolt around Northamptonshire with Scott !

On Sunday morning, very early probably a 430am departure I am heading for another Sportive, 2nd last 1 of 2013 to Coniston in the South Lake District. Looking forward to a short joint over the border and enjoy some scenery near Lake Windemere - I will let you know how I get on.. :)

On Monday 11th Myself and Neil leave Oban and head for Barra on the Western Isles. Over the next couple of Day's we cycle to Stornaway, before getting Ferry to Ullapool. Purchasing a very reasonable Hop Scotch No8 on the Day for 35 Quid will allow us to do this. Ferry from Stornaway is at 7am on the Thursday before a 40 mile cycle south of Ullapool to the train. Just to figure out how to get back to Oban to collect car. Home Thursday night! Acc to be sorted. Ferry leaves Oban at 1340 on the Monday. What a better way to spend a Birthday ! lol Detail in the planning.... More Follows... An Epic curtain to 2013

4 ish day trip - Glasgow to Oban cycle to get the ferry - From Lochboisdale To Stornaway across the Western Isles. then ferry to Ullapool.. then 40 mile cycle to nearest railway station. Nice early winter 2013 run aboot. EEEEK - Challenge Accepted ?

Planning in progress for a 2 wheeler from Oban across the Western Isles. Arrive in Stornaway, then ferry to Ullapool. This will be my peak for the best years cycling Ive crambed into 2013. That Boardman Hybrid will have covered nearly 5000 miles in 12 months and this is a great way to finish 2013 !. Planning as I type !

Other day I moved this blog back to blogger as the widgets and apps are alot easier to use than in wordpress. The domain  www.me.lexjah.com  is the exact same, but now the side widgets like strava and flickr are alot clearer. This has always been a source of fun to post what I find interesting and achieve with myself and my family, and has been on coming up close on 4 years. Sometimes I blog rubbish, mostly lol, use my iphone to do it, this was where wordpress was in a league of its own, but tonight I tried Googles blogger app and Blogpress on my phone or Ipad and the keep crashing. First world tech fanatic problems LOL Maybe I should just get a life haha!
