What was your fasting blood glucose? (full on chat)

Good Afternoon Ladies and Gentlemen, late again, but maybe better never than later.

Yesterday blood sugars 5.2, I had to play games over insulin doses before I was off out on the bike.
Today a manageable 6.0, but still a tweaked insulin dose before out on the bike.

Well fellow posters and painters all has dropped by the wayside in my determination to catch up on lost motorbiking time, yesterday I headed West and today headed south. Yesterday 50.5 miles and today 104 miles. I have been brushing up on my IAM road techinques ipsga, ssv and lines etc. Today I headed to a bikers cafe called Loomies at West Meon, the koffy was ok, but only 75p a mug. Yep on the long way home the cross wind was " interesting " .
Now I have a host of chores and chords, broken or otherwise to scale (s). Not withstanding my woodworking projects to catch up on.
 


Yesterdays trip H's a bikers greasy spoon. The Waterside at Benson on Thames a place to take the mistress, failing that the other half.

Today's trip Loomies another bikers greasy spoon. Note the old Austin A30, very rare and the two guys that owned it had a great sense of humour. That model was my first ever car so fond memories.
Well a couple of fellow posters asked for more bike travels.
 
Yes, but us big blond guys in longships soon sorted you all out with our battleaxes!

 
It’s just the styliste rules for traditional Chinese painting - they do white petals also - 5 petals though

Thanks. I still feel I should have taken more notice of the colour and shape of the blossom rather than seeing it as £ signs.
 
Very welcome pics, interesting stops, us Mountain Bike riders ride from Cafe to cafe even if it's the same one we keep passing again and again and again and......... actually there are at leat four we visit on Cannock Chase, or should I say used to visit before lock down, I still don't feel safe useing cafes, pubs, restaurants and takeaways. Just up the road from us in the village of Stone they have this last week just had an outbreak of 19 Covid cases ALL emanating from one pub In the village.
 
Fantastic location, who needs TV with views like those?
 
Very ironic that the post above was from Alfred - shame he isn't from Edington.

Hi Ian,
Michael Wood is a guy who is well worth listening to on the subject. He obviously is steeped in the history of the period of Alfred.

I am afraid I am what the Greek philosophers called Paul on Mars Hill...a seed picker!

A lovely sunny morning and a 5.9 to show for it

Think I'll read a book and then burn some calories as I cogitate for 30 minutes.

Enjoy the day
 
Good Morning and 6.3 for me today.

Tesco visit in a few minutes to achieve what I failed to achieve Wednesday.

Then the day is mine although same decision to make as last Thursday, choir or not this evening, should I go or not, outside but more than two households for the amount of people, social distancing possible but lines get blurred and of course singing. Safer than pubs and probably the Tesco shop, life's activities are no longer easy.

Achieve a day of wonderful things keeping safe along the way.
