First week back after recuperating from some surgery and so I’m doing Violator today

Love the socks and they definitely go with doing Violator in your first week (day?) back on the bike.

I too am getting back on the bike today as I recover from surgery but will be doing a 20 min Inspiration ride. I don’t have the socks but if I did they’d have to read “Going home”. Definitely not feeling like much of a Local Hero …

This is the first week back in 7 weeks. I definitely lost a ton of strength and endurance during the recoup time. Had to dial down to 80% to make it more manageable. Wishing you a speedy recovery and that your ride was fantastic, Sir Craig.

Doing Violator at any percentage is :nauseated_face::nauseated_face::face_vomiting:. Way to get right in on it @RoseYarrow!!

You can never leave Sir @Craig.Quarmby :wink: or should I say, you never left :sunglasses:

Certainly not talking about leaving Sir @Glen.Coutts and yes, I know I can’t. I meant home to the Castle - for low effort duties like cleaning the moat, polishing the draw-bridge chains, feeding the laser goats …

It was thank you @RoseYarrow. I’m sure you LOVED Violator! You too recover well.

Took my daughter north to start university last month. Haunted some of the local bike shops. Couldn’t resist these!

Normally my socks are as boring as the day is long, trying to break that habit!

FWIW, I received DPF socks out of ToS this year. Quite swanky!

Great thread. I too love some socks, here’s a shot while resting up after a walk on the Great Wall (2018). These are stance tie died magic mushroom socks, I wear them riding too. I have tons more to share if I only had thought to take pics of them… Virgin Mary, RTJ, WuTang ducks (Wutang aint nothing to duck with), etc…
