Rides bikes, paddles sea kayaks, takes pictures. Life on the road & my home in Cornwall.
Monday, sunshine.. the faded, melancholic town of yesterday springs to life with a colour and vibrancy that could not have been guessed at a day earlier.
Wish I could say the same of me, about as much vibrancy as a bread roll dropped in a puddle… still not strong enough to ride.. Still, mustn’t grumble, hehe.. could be worse, could be at work.. or something :-)

Stay calm pal. Wait for your strength to return. Photos are looking fantastic. Take a spin on your bike just with the camera and enjoy the light weight.
hey, thanks for the words. Yeah, i got up this morning still feeling bit weak and chesty, luckily at this time of year, i.e before the summer hols, Villarrica is a mellow little place and I have a comfy, friendly place to stay. Good coffee in town too. I’ll go for a short spin later perhaps, good advice!
