I'll be away for a few weeks from May 25 and won't have ready access to the internet so as discussed last Saturday I'll be posting rides for several weeks in advance.

(Although our house-sitter will look after many things I can't ask her to look after the blog!!)

If anyone has any specific rides they would like to schedule on specific dates please let me know via email by Saturday...otherwise as suggested I'll simply pick a few rides and post them on the blog.
