The other thread pretty much sums up how I feel about riding. Today I drove over to Tavistock planning to ride the Dartmoor route featured in one of the magazines. popped into Dartmoor Cycles to buy some disc pads and was pursuaded by the owner to ride (and pay for WTF?) a new Trail that has been built a few miles away. Anyway I thought why not but when I got there I realised 50 metres in that I had a 2cm tear in my front tyre so drove down to Certini for a high roller. Decided to go an do the route I had planned. BRILLIANT. Great descents, warm weather and lots of people smiling, apart from the grumpy as shit roadie (especially as I’m a fully paid up ex road racer (slow) myself)
