It does look very similar. Thanks for your reply. !ALIVE

@iamraincrystal I honestly wish I could send a bucket of hail to you but I doubt it would last the journey! 🤣 how long until the monsoon rains? Thanks @aliveandthriving 😊. !ALIVE

A change is coming. Southerly winds bringing up heat from the equator. It could be hot soon! 🤣

The tulips are magnificent! Some lovely colours there. !ALIVE

That is good. Someone has to protect the coast for everyone to enjoy.

Yes, unfortunately this is how nature works. We have dratted magpies doing the same thing.

You can say that again! 😆

A nice coastline. Looks like a lovely day to boot!

Congratulations to the winners.

That's a good point. I think for me it's time to ignore the stats! 🤣

An interesting insight into your training routine. Incidentally, what iscyour VO² Max . Mine seems to be 34 at 68 years old. It used to be low 40's in my 50's. !ALIVE

I know! We're being taken over by them. 😆

Those bushes look very much like azaleas which are in full bloom around here too. Very nice, and lush looking. A fascinating place to visit.

Yes, exactly, it would have been a long detour and a lot of road riding which I don't like at all.

It was great to get back out there on longer rides. It is amazing how the track conditions change over the seasons. Thanks for the comment and curation. !ALIVE

Your last picture of the ducklings trying to keep up with their parent is a real treat. 🤣

Cycling to work....in the rain! 😲. A double wammy! However, the weekend is a different story. !ALIVE

My pleasure as always! Another biking adventure coming up! 😁 !ALIVE

Thats too bad! 😒

Its a really pungent aroma, especially when the whole wood is covered with a carpet of it! I'm off on my mountain bike tomorrow into the countryside. I'll get some pictures of a similar woodland scene
