Dublin, Ireland

Dublin is such an amazing city, full of history and amazing people. It's just a shame winter is closing in fast as it's becoming increasingly difficult to explore and see everything. For the majority of the week, we actually had some decent weather, I no longer believe the Irish when you say "It's always raining in Ireland".

You really can't visit Dublin without having a Guinness from its birthplace, so we decided to pack ourselves into an SUV and head off into the city. The main objective was to find the perfect Guinness served in a traditional Irish pub. So where better than Ireland's oldest pub, dating back to 1198. The Brazen Head, with perfect Irish vibe, great food and my pint, was that good I'm convinced they had a line straight from the brewery. It's true when they say Guinness doesn't travel well.

Revolution Series Round 3, Manchester

After some time off my bike I've started to get the bug for cycling again (Thank you Laura Trott), but with winter arriving it's getting too cold for riding. So what better way to get your cycling fix than track cycling. Sat in the middle of the track with my trusty camera and a nice cold beer. 

Round 3 of the Revolution series was the final round of the UK championships, where team JLT condor won the UK championship. Seeing Ed Clancy in action was also very cool, although I didn't manage to get a photo of him in focus, either he was very fast or the beers were starting to affect my abilities to focus. 

Roll on the Revolution Champions league later this month.
