Late off the mark today so the easy choice was the Turbo. It was my first real "pushing on" session this year with seated and standing intervals........ You really notice it when you've not been doing much, boy did I suffer....

Rock of Dunamase
This outpost was part of Aoife's Dowry to Strongbow and was previously settled and used as a fortification long before the Norman's first arrived.
The Rock of Dunamase looking atmospheric in the mist.
It is an impressive heritage site with fantastic views across the surrounding countryside on a clear day. Well worth a visit if you ever get a chance.
Slieve Bloom Mountains
" There is no such thing as bad weather, merely bad clothing "
Slieve Bloom Mountains Spin.
Yesterday was a bright spring day in the Slieve Bloom mountains in Laois (Ireland). I didn't pass another cyclist during my spin and the brisk but beautiful day reminded me of the old saying I've used in the post header.
Sure enough I was snug as a bug in a rug and never really noticed the
cooler temperatures which made a nice change from many previous
occasions when I've often departed on the bicycle foolishly under
dressed for the weather, only to regret my clothing decision as the
biting cold took hold. Perhaps after all wisdom does indeed come with
age.
