the booze ride

rain didn't stop play, just altered plans. no 'street' ride this evening. instead, all singletrack leads to the pub. a birthday pint for simon. some muddy trails, cupcakes and a whiskey stop. rode home with a slow puncture and a sugar high. bike still needs cleaning and hip flask will need replenishing.
