Bike night on the Quay with the sister! 🏍️🍻 Big sis made the journey down for a much-needed week of coastal walking and twitching around the harbour. Naturally, it would have been practically criminal not to grab a pint by the water while she’s here. It was a surprisingly quiet bike night, but that just […]

“Hanging over”
Workin’ Day and Night…. #Michael
“Roll to the Beach”|Evening Hill
Waaaay too peopley for me, but bumped into Nicki and Graham on their bike, tried to catch them, my life they were quick on their leccy bike. Then to Sandbanks and bumped into my neighbours on a bench, we chatted for 40mins or so, lovely couple, still don’t know their names! 😆, then rode along […]
“Perky Bum coffee anyone?”|Little Perth|Southbourne
Tonight I spent a truly fascinating evening diving into the craft of coffee-making — learning how to measure, grind, tamp, steam, and pour with something approaching intention (and occasionally success). I explored the delicate balance of weight and timing, the importance of pressure, the beauty of a good crema, and even the differences between Arabica […]
“A Gentleman” | Poole
“The Distinguished Gentleman’s” Ride is today! Probably a couple of thousand bikes rumbled by. It will raise funds and awareness for men’s mental health and prostate cancer research, and the ride began at Poole Quay. A worthy cause….
The Italian|Poole
Gone but not forgotten….. this place was a little slice of Italy on Poole High Street. A sign of the times I guess that its now gone ….. It was “Ginali’s” according to the wife….
“Mrs J”|Hurn|Parley Green
A shot of Mrs J at her nieces wedding. She said to me, if you ever have to use a photo of me, you have my permission to use the ones from the Japanese garden. So there you go. I said “you scrub up ok”. In fact it was on this day, that we managed […]
“Whitecliff Series”|Whitecliff|Poole
A quiet stroll…
“Always A Special Birthday”|Dyserth|Denbighshire
A Quiet Moment in Dyserth Today is a bit of a mixed bag. It’s the anniversary of Mike Peters’ passing, which is always a tough one to process, but it’s also my good mate Matt’s birthday. I took this photo of Matt during one of those brilliant weekenders. We were hanging out at The Chapel […]
“Sea & Steed”|Bournemouth
Not too many people know that I, along with a mate called Shaun, setup the original Bournemouth Old School BMX and Retro Bike Club, and the associated Facebook group, we ended up with well over 1000 members from across the area, and South of England. Made some good friends through that group. We ride from […]
“Whitecliff”|#2|Poole
The tide pulling back always reveals a different kind of beauty. Looking out towards Poole from Whitecliff today, the heavy clouds broke just enough to paint these incredible, silvery reflections across the mudflats. A perfectly still and peaceful moment on the harbour. ☁️🌊
