Weekday evening in term time. Only 50-60 people in the water…..
Probably the best surf I had this year. 3ft and working well. Got a couple of 200yd+ rights.

Started the year off with pretty epic snow conditions.

More of the same. Days upon days of fresh snow and sweet lines.
[url=https://flic.kr/p/22KknJq]A year in Photos[/url] by Jamie Carson, on FlickrMarch
Erm, yeah, more snow photos. This day in particular was a surprise. Not a huge dump of snow, but the 1st sun we’d seen in a while and still enough to get fresh lines.
[url=https://flic.kr/p/22MP36P]A year in Photos[/url] by Jamie Carson, on FlickrApril
The final snow photo from last season.
[url=https://flic.kr/p/21sqCsg]A year in Photos[/url] by Jamie Carson, on FlickrMay

Fresh lines again, sometimes a little boot packing required, but sometimes you just need to earn your turns.
[url=https://flic.kr/p/22Kkp2W]A year in Photos[/url] by Jamie Carson, on FlickrchakapingFree MemberThis thread and the “best nines” on Instagram inspired me to do a blog post, if anyone’s interested…

LekuFree Member[/url]IMG_2136 by 100%of thetime60%ofthetime, on Flickr[/img]
I’m the one in the middle.
LekuFree MemberHad a week in Molini with Riviera Bike. Went over the bars on first day and thus the bruise. Santa Cruz were in town later in the week and one evening I ended very drunk with CG (top bloke).
jonostevensFree MemberFirst year living in the Quantocks, like a kid in a sweetshop.
Not sure what happened in January, but…
February | Roadie route planning needed some work.
March | About to drop into Weacombe
April | Evening rides! First poke around the trails at Triscombe.
May | Spring commute
June | Pint in the Quantock Brewery after a sweltering day in the hills with visiting friends.
July | Being stretchered down the side of a Combe as part of an Exmoor Search and Rescue Exercise.
August | Arse handed to me on a plate by my best mate, who qualified for the Worlds at half Iron distance this year.
September | Showing some more visiting friends around the Tocks.
October | Off the bike for the month after minor op, so treated shock and fork to full strip and rebuild. Would highly recommend Sam at Amped Cycleworx if you’re in the SW, he even sends you photos as the job progresses.
November | Beautiful colours in the combes.
December | Mallet finger. The most innocuous injury I’ve ever suffered but 7 weeks off the bike now. 🙁
