Wednesday, went to check out a route for a Group Ride I'm leading on Sunday, unfortunately, due to road closures and general crud and gravel, ended up having to totally re-work the route!
Then rode down to the Witterings on the south coast as I'd heard there was surfing there and chatted to a couple of the hire shops. Went down to have a look at the beach and heard a distinctive sound of a Rolls Royce Merlin aero-engine and saw a Spitfire (presumably out of Goodwood) flying down the line of the beach, then back, do a barrel roll and disappear off into the distance! :thumbup

I secretly like the noise it makes :lol
To become old and wise you have to have been young and stupid......
Rode it to Cornwall, where I am currently relaxing with a cuppa in a B&B. here at about 3:30pm, dumped my kit, and went straight out for a ride, visiting some old familiar places from my childhood.
Gonna give a photo a go - just getting familiar with a new MacBook, so not sure how well this will work - Looe harbour::
OK, couple more. Went out to Rame Head, which was a favourite of my Mum's - she was a Cornish girl, born and raised. Peaceful place, beautiful with the setting sun:
Ah well, don't know why I can't rotate that last pic :rolleyes
Friday went to have lunch with my wife (she was at work, I was not). That's a 20 miles ride, most of it on the beach road, so I stopped to take some pictures.
I love this place, particularly once the tourists are gone...
