At Last!...

After much head scratching and nearly giving up we have photos again...yippee!
So some from the last few weeks out and about cycling with friends...
Xmas Day was the last decent snow ride before the thaw set in, a nice wee solo ride with just the hip flask for company...



Holiday Monday was spent with friends around an old Estate in Mid Lothian...






Between Xmas and new Year the Weather was pretty horrible as a Snow thaw always is...overcast and fog here on the coast,only frozen snow now remains in areas sheltered from Sun and wind...

With ice from trampled snow left on paths and trails the Beach was as always open for business...


This is the only remaining WW2 coastal defence Anti Glider pole still standing on our coastline to my knowledge...In an area called `Heckies Hole` near the Tyne Estuary...Been standing here 70 years now...


Another day and a group ride with friends around Pencaitland,lots of ice in places!...







And we had a few pints down at the local Pub afterwards making it a top day out.
Most of the snow has gone here between the local Garlton Hills and the coast now and again we have lovely winter colours of browns and greens...i nipped up to Garlton Monument after work and took some pics, nice to get some blue sky`s again too...










And just to prove that blue sky isn`t photo shopped here`s a wee film from up top of the monument...

Last sunday i organised a ride around my xc local loop i used to do often and a couple of new faces turned up and although i never took any pics during the ride i did of this group we met, Colin showed me these Alpaca`s, never knew there were any here in East lothian...always something new to see when out and about...
