My ride of the day:

Well the photo is ready, a picture taken yesterday showing how the rape is beginning to glow.
 Wrong bicycle though, I was on my cyclo cross. I wanted to take my racer, but I'm too heavy, I'm not going on it until I'm under one hundred kilograms, at the moment the scale stops at one hundered and  one. It was a good ride, the weather was nearly perfect, not much wind (northeast, tree beaufort), the sun was shining and I was fit.




A picture I took when I was doing my round. Guess whose birthday it is? Claas, the names written on the bib, it's hard to read I don't know him but the sculpture was good.



More again tomorrow, have a nice day, be happy:-)
