the harvest ride

possibly the last non commute ride of the summer, heavy rain is forecast for the end of the week so it was important to get out while the sun was shining. I stuck to tarmac to give my back the best chance of recovery. I took the timberhonger route and i must have passed at least 5 different combine harvesters also making the the most of the dryness to get the crops in. it was lovely to see after last years awful weather. you can just see the combine in the distance, seconds after i took this the tractor and trailer collecting what the combine was cutting came around the edge of the hedge and would have flattened me!
so, autumn is upon us, here's hoping the riding continues
ride 113
22 miles
total 2346
Sept 32
commute 942
