Cycling weekend

Was looking forward to the weekend after the holidays (means travelling and eating!) Many of the usual gang were not free to cycle or been outstation since Friday evening. Very quiet on Sat morning too so decided to go on the MTB for a change. The front tire has lost all air and the rear one just need topping up. After pumping both tires and putting some oil on the chain I was good to go. Bike feels good and the brakes worked fine so did a 30km ride which included a short stretch in wetland. The place looked pleasantly familiar and quiet. The swan has lost its partner it seems and that's a bit sad.
Sunday was totally different scene altogether - rode with a group of about 50 riders on all kinds of bike. I was worried about the group being so huge luckily no mishap happened. One bike got a puncture and that about the only incident. We started rolling at about 8.20am and were back to the car park at 11am. Distance were 21km and just the right distance for not knowing the capabily of the riders. Some riders  obviously could do longer distance but we were more concerned about the less strong ones. Judging from the photos and responses on FB people were happy.

There used to be a pair of them.

The inevitable had to happen, but no big deal, provided you carry spares and tools.
