I got really depressed & fed up looking out the office window today at the fantastic sunny riding weather so I thought **** it I'm having some of that!

Anyway I've bagged a half day off work tomorrow afternoon & I'm off to Princetown for a Dartmoor loop. The plan is to get to Princetown for 1pm-ish & then head off towards Burrator doing a figure of 8 loop, if my legs hold out, that's 2 x down the widow maker & back to Princetown via the old railway line.

If anybody fancy's an afternoon bimble on Dartmoor then email me or meet me at the High Moorland Visitors car park around 1pm.

Correct, however when your work mates have a golf-day on the Monday then I'm entitled to have a MTB-halfday ride on Tuesday, especially as it's going to be dry, sunny & very little wind

just jealous i suppose. being stuck in a hot workshop in this fine weather's not helping

Thanks for the email, Crispy. Forgot to say that I had a fantabulous day on Exmoor today. Bluest skies and the best view of Wales I've seen up there, plus the ride I mapped out was cracking.

Have fun tomorrow.

Have a good 'un Crispy. Shame I can't make it today but I am about to pedal off to work with my new 100 lumen torch that I got from Cornwall Farmers strapped to my helmet. It puts the old Tesco 3 watter to shame.

BTW, it's unfair to pick on people with limited social skills who don't understand what the contour lines on a map represent so leave poor old Morpheus alone or he'll never come out riding with us

Mind you, I sometimes wonder whether Morpheus is really a troll login for one of the more mischevious Do'Mo Mo'Fo Kru.

Have a good ride.

Si - might do, not looking like there will be any water in the rivers so boating is out.

Depends how good the party I'm going to on Saturday night is....
