Back in the saddle after a dry spell. Been to Amsterdam in the interim with every intention of hiring a bike but utilmately opted out of the responsibility of a hire bike in favour of a care free few days. Have hatched a Dutch cycling plan though for 2016 so will see next year if it comes to fruition. No photos to jazz up today’s 10 mile round town jaunt as had my hands tight on the bars to brace myself against massive gusts. Plus seemingly everyone who has ever taken a picture of the crooked spire by night seems to have copyrighted it. Why? I know not but no steals available. As we’re passing through so called ‘Black Friday’ weekend and moving onwards towards Christmas like a sleigh with no brake the residents of Chesterfield have been up their ladders with their lights so maybe I’ll post some images of  Xmas: Chesterfield 2016 at some point (un copyrighted of course).
