January Cycling and other notes

Up to 11,295.8, meaning 255.1 miles for the month, in generally dry weather; a better total than last year's 213. February has started less promisingly; so I shall just have to see if I can stay ahead.

The mud and grime have chewed through the chain I put on at the start of December, so I got that replaced; probably need a thorough overhaul come Easter.

We finished the last of the apples from the garden by the last week of the month.
