How will 1x be next years big thing? I’ve been running 1x for over 2 years and many others before that!?
This year has been, lets face it, in terms of the effect the weather has had on us, utterly crap. I cannot remember a year when I’ve done less riding and had more un-memorable rides. Highlight of the year was a very wet weekend in the Lakes where we did a great, wet ride around Claife Heights and Grizedale and then had a great night in a great pub.
Next year… Hmm, tricky. New addition due sometime in the next fortnight which might limit my riding a bit but 2 weeks off paternity leave – well thats begging to be abused 😉 But trips to Coniston at Easter for a week will yield some proper big mountain riding and as long as the weather is better than last year then I’ll hopefully do more of what ‘I do’. Short, 2/3 hour rides from my door, sampling the best trails Calderdale has to offer with the odd weekend away to Glentress etc. Nowt too special but enjoying myself on a bike with mates.
Oh, and the Classic Weekender. How could I forget that!
