Wide flare bell-bottom jeans are still contra-indicated.

That reinforces my decision to wear loose clothing when on my bike. No need
to squeeze into anything.
Nice bike Godfrey. Having seen the very original comments on FB, bags I be
the first person here to say "Are the tyres filled with helium?"

The clip was quite funny showing the guy squeezing his belly in. I wear
lycra and I recognise that activity... There's no fool like an old fool,
but one of the joys of getting old is you stop giving a shit. A bunch of
old guys having some fun and keeping fit(-ish...). Nothing wrong with that.
The French have a verb 'boudiner' which I always think of when I'm
climbing into my lycra. It means to squeeze yourself into clothes that are
too tight, and comes from 'boudin', which is a type of sausage…
LOL! The one jersey the store had that I didn't buy was white, with black
bars in a pattern on the chest, topped with red shoulders. I thought it was
a cool pattern, but when I put it on and looked in the mirror, all I saw
was an overstuffed couch pillow. I handed it back and took the black with
zig-zag grey bars instead.
I mean, there's no need to exaggerate the fact that I'm a fat old bastard,
eh? It's perfectly obvious at first glance already… :-)
I thought from all the hysterics of the news and weather report that
yesterday was supposed to be the second coming of the Deluge. But it turned
out to be a lovely, slightly overcast, warm, dry day. I did a 19 mile ride
on Sumo—testing the seat on the new seat post—and a 16 mile ride on the
FCC, just digging it and getting a cup of coffee. And I could still walk
when I got home. Life is great!
Since this is a photo list: I fitted the Voigtländer Color-Skopar 28mm
f/3.5 lens to the Leica M-D body. Slides ever so nicely into the Peak
Design Everyday Sling 5L, along with my iPad Pro 9x7, AirPods, keys,
wallet, cycling jersey (in case it got chilly), and iPhone 6. Room for
another lens too. A near perfect "go for a ride" kit: It tucks onto my
back, stays put, and is very handy to get in an out of. I made a couple of
exposures, probably nothing worth posting but I look forward to
transferring them to the computer and seeing what I did…
