I often ride by this little church but today just couldn't help but stop to take a shot to share the view. Fabulous!

Out and about around lunchtime, pulled over by this shady stand of trees to eat. Love being enveloped in greenery

Lovely Autumn day and just wondering around in the Pyrenean foothills. Sunshine. Fresh air. Tranquillity. Perfect.

The media ignores daily third world tragedies as 'not newsworthy' yet daily shootings in USA are somehow of interest? #MainstreamMediaSucks

It's beer o'clock, but this is all I could find in the fridge. Oh well... cheers!

Hard hitting Aussie law makers outlaw mooning. Think wording accidentally makes builder's bum a crime too! Oops http://www.bbc.com/news/world-au...

@daniellloyd1 I don't know what this #freelloydy bollocks (boom-tish) is about, but something already looks a bit too fcuking free to me!

Another glorious day up the Col d'Aspin. Say no more!

Friday 23 September 2016
Windoze: Updating, don't turn off, will be ages. Me: Bit late now given I've stuff to do & am using a laptop away from power! #WhyLinuxRules

First day of Autumn in the Pyrenees. Lovely misty view along the range on an evening wonder around the foothills.
Friday 23 September 2016
Lazy supermarket priced these 2 off-cuts the same. Shame I chose the larger of the two obviously. Bargain plus!
Friday 23 September 2016
Fallen chestnuts all over the place this time of year. Out walking today so no worries, but best avoided on the bike!
Friday 23 September 2016
Countryside walkies. It's 'walkies' as neighbour's dog decided to tag along. She's smart, knows not to chase cows!

Will & Kate promoting Canada. Don't forget to tell the environmental disaster story that is the Alberta Oil Sands

First day of Autumn loop around the Tourmalet. Perfect riding conditions but it is getting a little nippy up top.

Dear Ms May: safe, wealthy nations have a duty to spread these traits globally, NOT selfishly slam doors on those less fortunate! #Disgusted

Just cut my nails in, literally, 1 minute. The InterWeb tells me some people will pay $50,000 for a manicure. So I just earned $3m/hour?
Sunday 18 September 2016
Gathering for a birthday celebration in Toulouse. Lots of Indonesian food & french gateaux. Oh yes! Nom, nom, nom! 
Sunday 18 September 2016
It might not officially be Autumn for a few days yet, but it's certainly coming. Beautiful colours this morning.

Visiting the market hall in Tarbes. So... here's the obligatory 'piles of bread & cheese' pictures!
Tuesday 13 September 2016
Bit of exploration & finding the limit of what's marked as a road. Still got those MTB skills, even on 25mm tyres!

Dear Australia, you do know a nature reserve should be, um, reserved for nature? Not some lobbyist's dirty business! https://www.theguardian.com/busi...

Humans have been on the planet over 100,000 years, but destroyed 10% of it's wilderness in the past 20. #Doomed

A full fridge. And yes, light inside is blue so our whole place looks funky if no others on when you open the door
Friday 9 September 2016
Quick lunch stop. Tried Parisienne Bruschetta to discover it's cheese on toast with ham! Very nice though. Nom!
Friday 9 September 2016
Spotted in local motorhome dealer: 'Crossover' model of our snail. Think it takes bit more than fat tyres though!
Wednesday 7 September 2016
Glass of rosé with lunch. In a beer glass. Because that's just how classy I am Cheers!

After yesterday some recovery needed so gentle spin to the Hourquette. If you call 1000m+ climb up here recovery

Top of Hautacam: Blue skies & views for miles! Well, it's the Col de Tramassel actually, but you knew that, right?
Monday 5 September 2016
Evening walk between the cornfields. Val d'Adour, French Pyrenees.

Spotted this deer on a dusk walk. He stood looking at us before slowly walking into the corn. Magical. #DodgyPhonePic

Breakfast time! Rest day otherwise there'd be eggs in there too. Love fresh bread & croissant in the morning. Yum!
Saturday 3 September 2016
Pot of 'industrial' desert with a few added Brambles picked straight from our hedge. Nom, nom! #SimplePleasures

If you see the headline, "Pound Jumps..." remember it's all relative. GBP is still down over 24% against AUD in the last year! #Forex
Tuesday 30 August 2016
While it might be a little cloudy down the valley, another glorious day up the Col d'Aspin. Simply love it up here!
Saturday 27 August 2016
Little trip to market today. We didn't pick up much, but how good does this slab of pork look? Nom, nom, nom
Friday 26 August 2016
Walls of snow in Spring, walls of corn in Summer. Just love the variety of the Northern seasons. Although - ask me again mid-winter!
Friday 26 August 2016
Ahem, well, this is slightly embarrassing... finally gave in & joined the fat bike fad! Look at the size of that!
Thursday 25 August 2016
Wondering around in the woods near Payolle. Still pretty warm in the sun so it's nice to be in this shade.
Thursday 25 August 2016
Another wonderful summer's day up near the Hourquette d'Ancizan. Always nice to stop & say hello to the locals.
Thursday 25 August 2016
Pratiwi hasn't been up this road before but quite likes the view. Maybe she should ride a bike more? #FamousClimb
Tuesday 23 August 2016
Post-recovery, recovery Cheers from Saint-Lary-Soulan!
Tuesday 23 August 2016
Beautiful day for a recovery ride in the vallée d'Aure. Full on 'recovery' too, my heart rate average was 88bpm
Tuesday 23 August 2016
Erm... didn't I just change this? Oh well, lucky there's nothing strenuous planned for today #LotsOfMiles
