While I was in the City,I parked the Surly in Drury Street Car Park ,very handy as it was raining out and I never brought the Saddle cover with me.

Spotted this nice Fixie, Pinarello, in Fade Street.

Fancy Ornamentation on the Handlebars of the Fixie.

I got Cycling Mitts for the Summer and they are on the right in Red with two pairs of my Waterproof Winter Gloves.

On Tuesday last I decided to go to Howth to buy Fish. I decided to do a bit of Hill Climbing up the Sutton side of the Hill of Howth, Old fashioned Tractor in Field on Carrickbrack Road on Farm./  Viuex Tractor , ferme, Routiere Carricbrack Col Du Howth

When I got Home I discovered I had done 52.62 KM.

Sodden Cycling Clothes Dumped on the Bike when I got Home.

It was a mixed week,first I went into the City last Saturday week and bought some bits and pieces. I got a Fuel Bottle for the Methylated Spirits for the Trangia Stove. I had to decide between the 1Litre or the 500 ML, I decided the 500ML would be better instead of hauling a Litre of Stuff around. It would usually last you a Week. I also got a Trangia Strainer /Chopping Board. I looked at a Trangia Coffee Filter but decided it was to Dear for me. So I finally got a Cheap alternative in the Stock Shop in South King Street and tried it out at Home and it worked fine. I also bought New Cycling Mitts for the Summer.

On Tuesday I decided to go to Howth to buy Fish,so I did a bit of Hill Climbing up the Sutton side of Howth for practice. I still had to get off on parts of the Hill to walk while I watched other Cyclists go up it with no bother. I got the Fish in Dorans on the West Pier and Cycled over to the East Pier to the Lighthouse for awhile before Cycling Home 30KM there and back.

On Saturday I went for Laps around the Phoenix Park with the Dublin Social Cycle Group meeting up with them at the Wellington Monument and Cycling in the Valleys and Hills of the Park. We stopped for Coffees and Food at the Café beside the Zoo before doing some more Laps,9 Cyclists turned up for it. It is an International Group of Cyclists from Different  Countries.We had a great time,when I got Home I had done over 52 KM.Weather was dry but Cool out around 8 to 10 Celsius for the Week.
