Tales from a down-shifted family
- Making the most of modest means
With my JOGLE attempt approaching quicker than it should be and time running out, I’ve been trying to get a longer ride in each week just to start preparing my body for so much time in the saddle. Finding the time for such rides isn’t easy though and so far I’ve only managed 4 such rides. The...
It was the last day of Half Term and finally I had a day that I could spend with Morgan. So, after a few chores around the house and a little bit of work we headed up to Pendam for a mountain bike ride. Morgan wanted to head out to Nant y Moch, but I wanted...
With our plan to cycle from John o’Groats to Land’s End to raise money for the JDRF later in the year, we thought it was time to get some training in so Jay and Mike came up to stay for the weekend and we headed out for a ride each day. Jay had said that...

We’ve had massive floods, huge waves, tidal surges, evacuations, hurricane force winds and power cuts, you’d think that would be enough now, but it seems not. Borth is now on fire!!!
