I get 'cross

Yeh. So, I had a 1 on 1 owl experience day. Sadly it was in the freezing cold sleeting rain.
Neither me or the owls were really than enthused by it. But getting plenty of owls to fly to my glove and feed them a bit of chicken soon made me forget about how it was 1degree and I wish I'd worn Gore-Tex.

Also got to mess about with a Hawk and a Vulture that had a 7 foot wingspan.

The owls I met were Tawny Owl, Eagle Owl (a bit scary), Spotted Owl and Great Gray Owl.
They don't weigh anything and they are super soft.
Yeh it was fun. I'd like to do it again. Owls are fun.






This one looked well angry

Then he decided to stand on the floor


The Ride Journal launched their seventh issue last night at Look Mum No Hands Cafe.

The new issue features a fresh new ad campaign for the Super Acciaio. The ads move away from hardened northern environment with a painted fan message on the climb to a hazy summer day and the inclusion of a Rapha-Condor JLT rider.
The shot is marked by a few lines, and offset position of the rider. The aim was the highlight the delights that a simple blast of acceleration down a favourite road can bring to anyone from team rider in training to one, my myself, out for a jaunt.

Tao and myself also add some literary flair (well Tao does) to pages 44 and 30 (respectively), while former Condor pro and 60s TdF rider Colin Lewis tells a story too.
