Heating up, gusty warm north wind full of dust & pollen, amusing watching the masked shoppers quickly pull their covid masks off to sneeze, then put them back on. Fish, chicken, bread, in that order

Always wondered if that road lead there, and it does. Very windy, at least mandatory covid mask stops a lot of the dust & pollen

Orange tree is blossoming again, jasmine is still out, grape hyacinths are done and need dead-heading

Would like it very much if left crank wouldn’t keep working loose, has done ever since last “service” by the lbs that I have finally given up on for good. Despite refitting and retightening, it just won’t stay

Did not feel like 7°C, Garmin said 4.2°C when I last looked. Discovered that up hill, with mask, in rain = how to waterboard yourself. Got home to find that she who protects the clean floors required me to nude up on the back deck. Recovery beer needed

Cold and wintery. Buzzed by a drone with 50cm clearance, avoided huge tree knocked down by truck, amused by old ladies complaining that there are bikes on bikepaths. Old lady one to old lady two “The only problem with this path…” pauses as I ride past along Djerringtrail and not quite out of earshot “…is the bicycles”
