Today's ride: found a deer trapped by wire fence so helped it escape & run off hopefully unscathed. PS: was nippy! 
Today's ride: Cols Ichere & Lie. No big climbs as taking it easy. Not that several km of almost 10% is *that* easy
On today's ride: little bridge crossing the River Ousse. Still so many little gems like this to discover near home 
Today's ride: Back on cliffs above Saint-Cirq-Lapopie because... why not? Few drops of rain a welcome refreshment!
Beaut Baronnies ride this morning. Road in the background is typical of the area: nothing straight & nothing flat! 
Beautiful day up top Felt knackered when leaving home but much better after this. Wish it was always the way!
Glorious day to ride the Col d'Aspin. Not much traffic but loads of riders out... and cattle... Moo! :)
Guess there are worse places to be forced to ride a trainer Easy spin in the sunshine, perfect conditions
Our w/e trip to Lisbon cancelled for obvs reasons 
However, there are worse places to be stuck #SelfIsolation
Today's ride: Hourquette d'Ancizan & Col d'Aspin. In the middle of winter. In shorts (you can't see) Ridiculous!
Bit stormy last night, left plenty of nice fresh stuff up here. Calm & sunny all day skiing with friends. Awesome!
What. A. Day!!!! Couple of ski days in the legs this week but they seemed to go OK - bonus!
First week of December & on the slopes already! Awesome conditions for this time of year. More of the same please!
Last day of 'summer' (in October!)? Tourmalet loop this morning. Beer by (friend's) pool this arvo! Perfect thx guys!
Crossing a surprisingly clear river Rhine on today's ride... where the Swiss/German border was also crossed 5 times!
Afternoon ride: Passo Valparola... as you can never ride too many epic passes in a day (before it starts to rain)!
When visitors ask to ride the Tourmalet. Erm, OK, if we must! Social time, so beers at the top. Cheers!
When friends with silly sunnies come to visit... Enjoying glass of wine & couple of pintxos at the local market.
Fete Pastoral: beautiful setting slightly tainted by bad organisation. Thanks to jolly friends made it through!
Short ride up little hill with a million of my closest friends Tourmalet on TdF day. Absolute insanity! Love it!
Stunning Lac d'Artouste. 2000m up, but with the sunshine today & that crystal clear water, feels almost tropical.
Middle of a heatwave? Time to head for the hills! Col d'Aspin was wonderfully refreshing. Moooooo!
Perfect day for a ride up Hautacam. Slow pace both up & down so plenty of time to enjoy the sunshine & views
Cruise round the Argeles-Gazost valley this morning. Beautiful view as ever from Saint-Savin & perfect conditions
Yesterday I skied over 8000m vertical in the mountains in the background. Today riding in full summer kit. Love it
Another great day on the slopes. Making the most of the sun & snow. Thanks to you guys for dragging me around!
Pyrenees MTB: [email protected]% average. Outstanding view & brutal when out of shape! Time to smell flowers on the descent
Cruising hills just North of home. Mostly firetrail. Bit of sniggle. But hey, it's dirt & the views are magnificent!
Normal programming will resume shortly But after 3 months off even trundle to next village with Pratiwi not easy!
Day out in the big city... Oooh, they have a proper curry house here. Jalfrezi please! Nom, nom, nom! Cheers! 
Out cycling today was stopped by police & then asked to hold this sign as a bunch of randoms rode by! Awesome!
Easy like Sunday morning?! Oh, & the fingerprint scanner on my phone doesn't work any more! #NoFingerprintsLeft
Living like a king! Another wonderful dinner with some overly generous friends. Nom, nom, nom, nom! Thankyou!
Little walk up near Col des Palomières. Not bad for the first day of winter! Making some new friends too
Lunch at Payolle. I guess there are perks to having to do this tourist thing after all! Nom, nom, nom, nom!
Pic from one of the club guys today. Not at all the prettiest part of the ride, but I'm in this shot, so... share!
Lunch with friends after a damp walk. Advantage of chilly conditions: the restaurant is serving vin chaud. Cheers!
Short stroll to check out our new locale. Love how the inquisitive neighbours look up from their morning snack
Not just a pretty face? Access to oven + bit of spare time means fresh bread baked by my own fair hands. Yum!
31 October yet back atop the Tourmalet in summer riding kit! Twice in 5 days. With weather like this stupid not to
Spanish Sunday lunch. Pratiwi had a big octopus leg that just melted in the mouth. Unbelievable how good that was!
Family dinner in Quillan. I'm not easily impressed by salad, but... that's not bad! Prefer my choice mind!
Outrageously good dinner tonight. Soooo good & so much too. Had to take a doggy bag which was our lunch the next day!
Lots of fun at the TdF today, a highlight is meeting Didi The Devil just before the Aspin climb. What a character!
