Wednesday 9th 56F/13.3C [7.00] Overcast. The forecast was mostly sunshine. Though with the risk of thundery showers from the north.
Up at 6am after a fairly quiet night.
I have plans to ride back to a builder's merchant some ten miles [16km] away. I drove there yesterday but must return to buy more O-rings in a smaller size.
9.40 I returned from my 31km ride empty handed. They had no O-rings in the size I needed. The ride there was cold and into the headwind. I came back by another way. Mostly a crosswind and then a tailwind at the end. I left at 8.05 and it only became sunny at 8.15. I was pushing myself on way there. More of a dawdle on the way back. It was hilly going both ways. Though not a problem on the e-bike. I rarely bother with lower gears thanks to the motor assistance available.
My search for a tool in the shed quickly became a marathon tidying effort. A dozen electric clock dials can go to the local flea market. The heap of cardboard boxes and junk will go to the recycling yard.
14.50 69F/21C. Hot and humid. Clocks delivered. Off to the recycling yard. I had to clear the trailer of fine gravel first. Piled beside the pond in the greenhouse. To close off the toothy gaps around the edges.
15.40 Back from the recycling yard. A whole trailer full. Just from the shed.
