Last week I was fortunate enough to have a couple of days on my tod in the Lakes, brilliant weather and some awesome biking – Helvellyn and then Kentmere horseshoe and Nan Bield the next day. Mrs Nobeer had enquired as to where I was going, told her I was going pretty high, and as all my usual riding buddies were at work (tuesday and wednesday) I’d be riding on my own.
So, she quite rightly insisted that I leave a plan of my route, and call her both days when I was done, fair do’s. But it’s got me thinking, I ride on my own quite a bit, and mainly natural off the beaten track stuff, and I remember not so long ago there was a guy left out overnight in Mine woods (Stirling) due to having a tumble and there was no one around.
Do you tell your other half’s where your going?.
Downside to thinking about it too much, was that I rode pretty conservatively in the lakes, I won’t do that again!
