Sorry, too busy reading to blog (got it, got it, got it), and anyway, I don't want to remember the three hour cycle ride in the torrential rain last weekend
We only did it so that Handsome could try out his new bike rack...
Handsome's getting a bit serious about this biking thing - we have just purchased a new bike rack for the back of the car (the one that's normally full of boots and rucksacks) upon which he can stack the bikes (no, I don't stack bikes under any circumstances) so that they stay upright, not touching each other, and unwobbly. Apparently this is more difficult because I have the gall to have a woman's bike, which doesn't have a crossbar, so it hangs differently.
Or so I'm told.
And we needed an extension piece to turn the three-bike bike rack into a four-bike bike rack - even though one of those four bikes has actually left home. I suppose there's always the possibility that Hairy might bring his bike back 'specially to go on family bike-rides, or alternatively, Handsome might need to take both his bikes, in case the terrain was changeable. Oh, and we had to get a towbar put on the car to put the bike rack on, because otherwise there would be no point.
Handsome spent an evening playing with the towbar and then an evening playing with the bike rack... and then he told me about it. Honestly, how interesting is a bike rack? It's like having a conversation about fridges.
I think we might be going cycling this weekend, and I think we might have to force Mouse to come too, because there wouldn't be any point whatsoever in only putting two bikes on the bike rack!
