Tails From Provence

Blogged? Ridden? Poneyed Aero?

All three, in fact…

A brief summery summary.

It’s been hot.  It’s been dry.  The flies are a bugger.

I kept riding up to the middle of July, by dint of hauling my sorry ass out of bed at 5.30am and plonking it in a saddle sometime between 6.30 and 7.00.  But then, even the early mornings just got too damn hot.  And FLY-y.

Temperatures are beginning to drop, we’re down to a high of 30C by day now, with a refreshing overnight low of 11-15C forecast for the next week.  That’s down from a low of 23… no way is the house gonna cool down overnight in that sort of heat.

So now we can start saying “Winter is coming.”  But before it, we have Autumn.  Great riding weather.

I can’t wait.
