Just back from a nice week away in Cyprus. Low, middle and high 20's throughout the week 
Nice hotel, all inclusive, great food. Feeling very well rested and relaxed
Had the usual car hire and got around a bit from our location in Ayia Napa. It was an automatic and I came home forgetting how to drive stick!!
Travelled over the border twice. Great things to see on both sides. People very welcoming.
Got a lot of walking done, swimming, used the hotel gym once (not well equipped), out running early morning on the beach twice (felt very Californian), and hired bikes out for a day. Lots of places supply cheap, family bikes. Not sure about the upmarket ones. Plenty of cycle lanes along the coast. Seen a few lycra clad guys on both mtb and road bikes in the centre of the island. They have a good few peaks with good surfaces on them up to monasteries, castles etc.
I'll see if there are any respectable photos of us on bikes which I'll post later.
