I personally have had a brilliant weekend. Yesterday rode from Edale, Hollins Cross, mam tor, rushop edge, Hayfield, Jacobs Ladder. Very Very Ice, The ladder was sheet ice for about 10m in places, which made climbing harder, and descending even more fun.

Then today decided to put the DH hat on and go for a play at Wharncliffe woods. Totally different in terms of grip/terrain, yesterday i had no grip due to ice, today no grip due to ice melting and creating mud. Seemed very busy, lots of DH chaps knocking around.

Anyways, a few shots, all taken from phone so poor quality etc…

from a ride on the road

40 miles around the Rhondda yesterday, it was only meant to be a quick spin.

Icey waterfall not too far from the Skyline trail at Afan

Scratch – Wow! I noticed the Beacons were iced up the other day, but didn’t think there was anything like that in Rhondda.

This was Middle Wales, last weekend.

daveevs – where’s that to then? looks rocky for mid-Wales, sure you werent up in Snowdonia somewhere.

Looks very tasty….!

The Rhondda’s a dark horse as far as riding goes.

I did Cadair over xmas, fantastic view from the summit.

couple from saturday, was icy yesterday 🙂

Just above Ladybower Andy?

That shot of Mid Wales is brilliant, Is the water in teh top right the Mawddach Estuary?

Out riding with the dog this morning…

Agent – It’s right on the Mid/North border and Will’s spotted it – Cadair Idris looking North to the Mawdach estuary.

A grand day out. More Here

Dave – Some brilliant photos there, especially the reserviour ones lol. I’m pressuming that the photos from New Years was this new years, if so I stayed at that B&B from the 1st jan for a couple of days. Brilliant Place isn’t it!

I have been doing all of the Boggy ones recentley for obvious reasons,I havent had any (bad) excursions into the flaura and fauna but Clare has, :roll:ahem…pics to follow apparentley,or maybe not come to think of it!

Great view looking into Borrowdale and Bassenthwaite valleys

Ice was pretty bad but the usually boggy moor was nice and frozen

Singlespeedstu

They were all taken over at Kingsford downhill park, on the other side of Kinver Edge.

Crackin pictures guys. Wow. Love the comedy duo 😀

Cuckoo were yours taken on the cimb up to stanage pole and then on the road bit back toward burbage?

If I saw that fence too and thought it looked cool!

snapper.

Though it looked familiar.

Very observant steveh, both locations near Stanage as you said.

It’s a pity there aren’t more winter days like that here, didn’t even have to bother cleaning the bike afterwards 😀

gingerflash, nice set of the ‘cross nats. Do you let the flash fire at full power? I usually set mine to -1 stop so it acts as fill-in.
