Back from a post-work blast around the Meanwood Valley Trail in Leeds. Don't think I have ever ridden it this dry, this fast. It encouraged you to stomp on the pedals, pop off every little hump, bump, root, blast up every climb… lots of "oooooooo noooooooo I'm not sure if this is going to stiiick,,,, going soooo faaast". And tyres just gripped. Or drifted in the most wonderful predictable way.

Not many things in life can make me giggle like a toddler. Riding bikes can, and did tonight!
