I had been out walking yesterday with my camera. The temperature in Scotland finally headed towards 30° and the heat finished me for the rest of the day. Today’s forecast is for just as hot but I really did want to get out on my bike.

So at 6.30 I got up, readied myself and went out. It was still cool and there was also the added benefit of the canal towpath being quiet. I cycled for about an hour. Now I can stay indoors in the cool and shade without feeling too guilty. I should really get into a habit of doing my cycling early in the morning. It is so much more enjoyable.
