Last week I rode 500 miles in beautiful Oregon countryside. Wednesday, I rode out from Portland towing a bob trailer with camping and hiking gear to climb Mt St Helens. It's the first time I've been out in the hills without a bike in years. Hillwalking rocks!

I will be riding Windy Willow tomorrow morning, and worth the mither and a few others. But I am not showing anyone I don't know, where they are! This on the grounds they are not strictly legal trails.
I know Mr Woppits view on this sort of trail so would not be wanting to expand the number of people who use them!
Posted 2 years ago # -
I will mainly be riding with freeridenick, Dango, stopadoodledoo and a female rider on another forum and film them whilst they all show me how to ride like a freeride god.
I will then edit the film and share it with you next week so that we can all bow down and realise how unworthy we are.

Going to give my forks a post TFtuned service shake down tomorrow, Rooley Moor road ought to do it or possibly the descent from Gorple Stones on the Mary Townley. Sunday is up for negotiation, may be on kid watching duty (mine not other peoples
).

shortcut - I've had a look at the Nirvana video of Windy Willow and I can't see any new trail build - it all looks like linking existing tracks to me. How is it "not strictly legal"?
Posted 2 years ago # -
Meeting up with a bunch of retrobikers for a schlep round Hope tomorrow, not sure on Sunday.
Posted 2 years ago # -
Taking the wife and kids to Skeg-Vagas and working too much. No riding for me this weekend.

After a few weeks off due to a house sale, went out this afternoon around Holmbury and Leith. Can't believe how dry and fast it all is....it was fantastic. Windy Willow is almost* dry
Probably go back out on Sunday.
* aside the one little muddy bit in the gully near the start that I don't think I've ever seen dry
Posted 2 years ago # -
well, it certainly is not bridleway and some of it may be classified as footpath or indeed no trail at all. so not strictly a public right of way!
Posted 2 years ago # -

I'll be mostly flanking the Ridgeway but on road on the skinny tyred machine trying to see if I can ride it faster on road than I did the Ridgeway offroad on the fat tyred springy machine. And stuff like that.
And then on sunday I shall be mostly watching the "CX race in Sir-windun" and supporting the GWR team. And maybe Thurman Merman even though I have no idea what or who Thurman Merman is. But that just adds to fun of it all.
