Not much interesting to say about today's puny 40-kilometer cycling trip except that on a sunny autumn day like today the colors of Groningen's fields are extra pretty.
We basically ran errands today. Sidsel wanted to go back to a sheep farm where she'd bought wool to ask about the breed of the sheep, but the farmer wasn't home. Presumably he was in church. Sidsel will just have to look the sheep up in a catalogue and then check if their wool is suitable for felting. Also, we dropped by at my parents' house so that Sidsel could test my mother's old touring bike. It's been stored in the attic ever since my mother's rheumatism got too bad for cycling, and Sidsel can have it on an indefinite loan until she goes back to Denmark. The bike's been approved so next week she'll be riding a sports bike just like me. Good; people were giving me "buy the girl a decent bike" looks.

But Sidsel's old bike is better than yours... I've ridden it!

It's better than my old bike but not better than my new sports bike. Trust me on this.
