Comrie Croft today with eldest_oab, with whom I sampled the excellent new upper red route. If you like Laggan, you will love this 8)

Where have you all been?

Looking out of the window at the constant pissing rain 😥

Was there 2 weeks ago for the first time and thought it was ace. Pretty physical trails, love the red stuff which I thought was tougher than the black route. Didn’t get out today, best laid plans and all. Will be planning on something over the weekend though.

Just back from a couple of days on the Bluestone Preselis(born there on the hills, and ride or walk a few times a year) getting hammered by big winds. Beautiful and empty.

Managed a local one between showers. First of the weekend.

Confined to barracks due to general anaesthetic on Wednesday. I’m going stir crazy.

Trail run this morning followed by a glorious mountain bike ride with both boys and mrs swedish chef

Basque coast..

Never mind warmth, I’d just settle for dry 😐

I’m fed up my legs looking like that and the grinding paste on everything….

@TANG! Bluestone Preselis! Tell me more – I’m in H’West and have pretty much given up hope of decent local trails!

Well drying up nicely at Egypt above Hebden Bridge today, 1st long ride for a good while. Not quite MNPR standard according to Strava, but another month I’ll be back.

Endangered Species

Last time I was up here it was snow ice and gales, not today

Mr singletrackmind very kindly drove us to Afan today.
Did Blades, absolutely awesome.
Dunno who this couple are (hope they dont mind me posting their pic up!) but they were the only folk we saw on the trail!

and the only Yeti that survived the trip 🙂

Teign Valley in Devon this evening… Lovely.

Lovely Peaks ride for me.

4 hours of pure headwinds today going point to point. Great training but not a lot of fun solo. Averaged a lowly 27kph. Hope the wind holds for the ride back on Monday.

Road ride on my MTB from my friends house into town, Swedish Chef I think we probably had the same headwind!

MTB ride from Thursday.

Gothenburg

Terrible Picture, but whatever. It was quite misty in Cheshire early this morning.

A muddy one in the wilds of north Hampshire..

Good picture frogstomp!

Today’s suspension set up ride……

This is literally 5 mins ride from my doorstep.

Just need to kick myself up the arris and get out riding more.

stupidly greasy mud today, even the fatbike struggled for grip turning in

My phone appears to have decided to make it look a bit moody 😕

Malaham amazing weather 8)

was nice to ride it again, thinking over past rides, and how lucky some off us are. 😐

Sweating buckets in the heat and nervous energy produced by fitting a pair of Rocket Rons a bit too early in the year for the Clwyds.

We were having too much fun to stop when riding, so here’s a pic of the car park at the Forest of Dean!

😉

mmmm, sunshine on Loch Lomond. I *must* get the bike out tomorrow…

I had taken this for the Monthly photo challenge thread (hence the banana), but it was taken today so also counts as an Easter ride.

Appropriate stone rolling Easter Sunday bike picture….

Friday no pics but looked like i was riding where bregante was as wet and muddy

Today to quick as a quick 2 hr 30 min blast round rivvy on the SS I was time limited and rushing – must take mpre pics when i ride

Upper Swaledale. The climb from Muker up onto Kisdon is a biyatch of the highest order! Goes from steep hardpacked track to even steeper wet grass.
