Afternoon Pub Ride

The supposed rear puncture in my Hybrid failed to materialise. I checked it in the morning and although it seemed like it might be down a fraction, it wasn't enough to convince me it was a slow puncture and not my imagination. Either way, my tyre was definitely down the other night. Might be the valve so I'll get it into a bucket of water later.

Ben and I took a jaunt on our bikes along the Kennet & Avon Canal to Burghfield after lunch & stopped in The Cunning Man pub for a drink before heading back more or less the way we came. Ben had a pint of Blackcurrant & Lemonade & I had a bottle of Becks Blue. We sat outside in the garden and relaxed. It was very pleasant.

Wasn't as hot today and for some reason we had a head wind in both directions. Route HERE

EDIT: Just saw this on Flicker. Ring Ring....Bananaman?
