Headed out earlier and did a quick loop of Healy Nab before heading up and over Great Hill. Hardly anyone about and it was even dusty on Great Hill! Sadly the peace & quiet was shattered when I got over to Rivington (it was heaving) so didn’t hang around there long.

The new bike is still ace 🙂

It is indeed a lovely day for a ride…I rode Cannock on Saturday and got drenched and plastered in muck but still enjoyed it.

Got out in the road bike for a few hours today and enjoyed the sun and deserter country lanes. Saw a few others out on their road bikes but not many.

Decided to avoid the North Downs today as I thought it would be rammed so did a very enjoyable 50 mile road ride around Surrey and Sussex. Only down side was the number of motorists who thought it would be a good idea to overtake on blind bends or just before the crest of a hill!

Heading out after work this evening, hopefully all the tourists will have done one abd I’ve have the trails to myself.

I headed out on the road because I figured that Cannock would be heaving as would every other trail centre within easy reach. My usual spots in the Peaks were busy enough last week despite the crazy hail storms so would have been evil today…views would have been nice though.
