On your bike, bridges, or picture of the day?? Going with bike. Rode over to my Sister's to pick up my car which she's been borrowing since hers died. Too nice a day not to take a trip over the Forth Road Bridge, and get a pic of the Forth Rail Bridge.

An excellent ride Richard :)

Such a nice day down here and feeling well enough, I went for a short ride on my bike... It's been a long time... Last ride was back in early September :shock:

I'd have ridden further but for lack of light...

Another day, another bike ride in this gorgeous autumn sunshine... It looks warm but it's just the opposite!

Great cycling conditions with no wind to speak of :)

I'm not yet wearing my winter kit but arms and legs demand to be covered... I have spring/autumn kit that does the job...

Still wearing fingerless mitts though - I'm toughening up my hands ready for winter ;)

It look like high summer in that picture... Oh how the camera can lie :lol:

Much as it was here yesterday Jim, just 3C when I left, long trousers, ears covered, and fingered gloves were pressed into service. I do need to get some new overshoes, my feet were Baltic!!

It's an odd thing with me Richard, I can get very cold hands but never cold feet... Everybody around me does and I've still got nice, toasty tootsies...

Hands are a different story though... I must dig out my Dr. Zoidberg Lobster Mitts soon :)

The tricycle I last had a go on was made by Triang and had solid rubber tyres in the 1960's.

That looks very purposeful Neil :D Can't see me doing a duathlon on it though!

Maybe not Jim, but surely the ideal vehicle for a triKathlon? :-D
