I'll be getting out for a pushy ride today

Not been out this year due to the poor weather and being poorly for the last 4 weeks.

Things getting better so hoping i'll be out soon.


Enjoy the ride........

[Dazzler]

That was amazing (Thanks John)

.... and being poorly for the last 4 weeks.

Why wasn't I told earlier??? I like to know these things...

Not like you to be crook Lester (are you having a dry January) 

[eye30]

Not dry january but had/have a flu virus which i thought had gone then last week came back with a vengence.

Not been to prayers since 17 december and heard the congregation have been knocking back the wine in my absence and putting it on my tab..... 

[Dazzler]

Sounds like you ARE having a dry January,  but not out of choice.... get well soon!

I posted these on John's behalf. He looks to be about my height but I haven't met him to confirm despite two attempts. Hopefully he will comment in due course.

My mistake!! i had to have a blood test today lady measured me i'm 168cm not as tall as you Dazz.

[Dazzler]

So I think that makes you about the same height as our main  man (Steve )

Finally got out today.
First proper ride of 2017.
Just a shortish 10 miles along the sea wall between Moreton and Hoylake.

Looking towards Liverpool and the Pennines in the far distance


Leasowe Lighthouse
( just to the left of the lighthouse you can make out a block of flats. I live not far from them)


Black Pearl/Grace Darling





RNLI doing exercises with the inshore hovercraft





Looking back along the prom at Hoylake towards Moreton



Views of the welsh hills, Snowdon can be seen on a clearer day, and The Isle of Anglesey on the right.

[CraigB]

Nice pics looks cold at the moment

That would be great fun scooting around the bay in the hovercraft

Not the prettiest beach is it...

A nice thing about coming back to Oz is joining the pushy brigade, riding to and from work every day. I'm a gym junkie getting a session in every day but neglecting any solid leg work, so the riding is paying off in spades. Soon I won't look like this guy:

Oh dear! I hope you didn't do that photoshop! 

[The Gonz]

  I don't Photoshop. Why reinvent?

[Lakes]

Love looking at your Pic's! Never been on a hovercraft before would be fun! what size & type motor do they use? & do they need some water on the surface they skim over?
I have been up Sydney for past week no pushy with me, but still some good big city cycleways up there.
will get out for a ride today.

[Lakes]

That's right, just slang. do you ride one?

[Shambles]

Nah it's not slang - it's short for "pushbike"

[eye30]

The push bike is a song originally recorded by Australian band The Mixturesand released in 1970.

meehalych that looks like a great bike!
the beauty of a bike or Pushy is you can ride all over the world if you wished without changing it. like with cars need controls & steering on left or right side, not so with bikes.

hey i read in todays paper that an old gu like myself  , was shoot at in Victoria state riding a pushy b
