Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

The irony.....everyone on Zwift except me😀.

72 easy outside miles with a (takeaway only) cafe stop and 5 mile run off. Traffic at pre lockdown levels. Then dug some shit into the vegetable patch. Knackered now.

Tomorrow 12 mile ish run am, more garden work then up the Alpe at 16:00. Hoping to nab the lightweight wheels at the top and get a few death stares from those who keep getting crappy gloves....😀

Good work going on here, nice. We’re gonna rip when racing begins again.....

Oh and Kona: Decision is October 21.

Linds, Facebook showed me a photo from this time last year yesterday, of an early morning swim at the lake. The water temp was 15.8, according to what I said accompanying the photo, and having had such warm weather recently this Spring I wouldn't be surprised if it's currently warmer. I'd have to not bother with a wetsuit as I can't do the zip up unaided, but at that temp that would be ok for s short swim.

I just need the lake to reopen :-(

Thanks, that's helpful. It would be lovely at that temp. Neither of the lakes that are open are lakes that I've been to, which is adding a layer of worry. I might try to go this week if it's as warm as forecast.

One of the lakes apparently *has* opened locally, but only to members, (and I'm not), who must book a timed slot. You might need to check that with the lakes you're thinking of.
