My mate isn’t – he’s just text me. I think I owe some dues to rain, since we got 5 largely dry days in Scotland. It doesn’t make a difference when you’re out there anyway.
I’m servicing 3 mates bikes today…..brake maintenance, fork rebuild and twatting about with singlespeed chainlines. All for free ‘cos I love tinkering with bikes (although I do get paid in cakes and buns on big days out!)
It’s rideable weather here (at the moment) in western Sussex. May go for a bimble over the local forest later or the Surrey Hills. Tomorrow Box Hill is my intention provided it’s not lashing down.
Us southerners are hardier than you think, you know……ahem 😉
me. pissing it down but did take my green mate out for 30km jaunt. found some nice techy singletrack with some 2ft drops, lots of roots, four proper switchbacks and some baby-head stones/rocks. after the fourth or fifth time my mate was riding without tabbing.
Was going to ride today, but looked at the weather and decided to write reports instead so I can ride in the evenings next week… Might get out tomorrow if it’s less rank though.
Just about to set off for Old Trafford to watch the rugby international then back to the rugby club to watch highlights of the Lions match on the big screen and drink too much beer
Just got my new 29er built up. Last parts came yesterday. Got the last bits on yesterday afternoon and it has not stoped slashing it down since! Thats what I call sods law.
