On my Austrian gravel ride near Murau also spotted an #cycling innertube vending machine 😎

Family bike ride into Bruges for waffles #cycling

Cool afternoon cycling along the beach from De Haan to Ostend, then a little loop inland along canals and cycle paths with my son #cycling

Socks the Galgo doesn't like staying in kennels when we go on holiday (unlike his 3 doggy siblings) so he's having a holiday in Brighton with his auntie and family #greyhounds #sighthounds

A cycle ride out with my son last night at dusk. I just about made one of my favourite local hill climbs on my 5 speed 1968 Legnano road bike #cycling #vintagebikes #legnano

A couple of old miniatures painted this week, the dark elf for a planned battle in September and the daemonette because its a cool 1980s #oldhammer miniature. I had, until recently, only one of this RoC range #paintingwarhammer

Charlie the Greyhound might have found the darkest, coolest place in the house to avoid the sun or he's guarding our coats and toilet 😍 #sighthounds #dogsofbluesky

Our four hot #rescuedogs today, 2 Spanish, 2 Romanian, finding places to cool down, Charlie the greyhound decided to hug a wall #greyhounds #dogsofbluesky

Finished painting my boxed set of the 1982 pre-slotta Night Elf Patrol . Relaxing in a new shrine type terrain piece that I made for an upcoming WFB #oldhammer #paintingwarhammer

Having to rush to get back to make sure people are ready and do the school run is a great way to achive some #strava personal bests #cycling #roadcycling

Socks and Charlie our two rescue greyhounds joined a local greyhound walk today, Socks, a little nervous, tolerated it, Charlie, very outgoing, loved it and sniffed everyone and everything! #sighthounds #greyhounds

I love these covers, I had a couple as a teen in the 80s, I completed the set a few years ago and then decorated my home office wall with laminated copies

Our galgo and greyhound have been sharing a bed a lot today, they have a lot of beds to choose from but both like the one by my desk when I'm working from home, it's awesome to see them sleep next to each other 😍 #greyhounds #sighthounds #dogsofbluesky

Time for a road bike ride too, a caffeine-fuelled blast out on some of my favourite quiet country lanes #cycling

A rare day off together today, eldest daughter dogsitting, so Mrs Ninefingers and I went to the cinema and had a screen to ourselves! #cinema #movies

The missing Commanderess Zelosa Forestburner from the 1982 SS3 Night Elf Patrol set arrived today, a little dusty with flaky bits of old paint. A quick scrub and she's ready for priming and painting. #beforeandafter #oldhammer

Lidl has boxes of #belgianbeer back in store, excited to have some Gulden Draak again!

Played Warhammer Fantasy Battle 3rd Edition today...for the first time in a number of decades. My orcs and goblins with Fimir allies vs a friends Bretonnians, really good fun to use these older rules again, even though I lost by a wide margin. #oldhammer #warhammer

Charlie our Spanish rescue greyhound has found a cool place to rest #sighthounds #greyhounds #dogsofbluesky

Late evening ride with my son, very quiet lanes around Hatton, just about got back before sunset #cycling

A part off-road cycle out to the Cotswolds to do a challenging hill climb, Saintbury Hill, a great climb, glad I was out early to beat most of the morning heat #cycling

Quick whizz out on the Tissington Trail and a great route through Harrington and Pillsbury to do a nice climb hitting 18% #cycling #gravelbikes

Rode Bealach Na Ba today, had wanted to do so for quite a few years, the event, run by the local community was one of the most well run and friendly that I've ever done, stunning scenery too! #cycling

Travelled up to the Scottish Highlands today for a weekend of cycle climbing, had a break from driving in Aviemore, a quick whizz around the NCN7 route, stunning forest, snow-capped peaks and a loch, gravel and road sections #cycling

Kasteel Tripel in my favourite Belgian Beer glass, a third beer bought on my recent trip to York #belgianbeer

wow, that's a beautiful bike, a little like my dream bike, a vintage Wilier in ramato

i painted these, from the Oriental Heroes range a couple of years ago, then moved onto painting my Citadel hobgoblins in a similar style

A trip to York for a university open day with my daughter, quickly popped to my favourite Belgian Beer shop, Trembling Madness, bought a few harder to find bottles and a Trappistes Rochefort glass 😎 #belgianbeer

My 1968 Legnano Gran Premio (my only vintage bike) is down from its winter hibernation spot on the wall of my home office. Dry weather on Sunday morning, so we're going out for a spin on some local Warwickshire country lanes 😎 #cycling #bikesky #vintagebikes #roadbikes

I woke far too early this morning so took the opportunity to set out an hour early for work. Managing to add an extra 18 miles of canal onto my commute 😎 #cycling #gravelbikes #bikesky
