did the first really big ride of the year today, Stockport to Edale and back. I reckon 40-45 miles the bloody GPS packed up!
Now got a very good start on the daft cyclist’s tan and barely able to lift a beer to my mouth. Happy days!

Lovely – was there time for any photos?

errr no photos!!
just rode.
Hadn’t realised the Toboggan run (first descent off the back of Mam tor) had been improved. As usual its a rubbish job. 2 metre wide gravel track. Went on to Hollins Cross and down there.
Everywhere was just really nice and dusty

Oh no. We usually climb that (silly I know), so would it make it easier to climb?

well the top section i saw was 2m (ish) wide and like a steep road i guess its a lot easier!

sounds great. love that feeling.

That means nothing. and I’ve typed that. And I do feel.

Feel what?
Feel drunk?
Feel unable to finish a sentence ?
Feeling groovy?

Yep! Took the day off work on Friday and had a

Grand Day Out

in the Dales.

First long ride of the year. Also quite tired :))

Cheers, Paul
