Wainuiomata 491
Here’s a video from a rainy day on the Wainuiomata 491 trail in New Zealand. Nope, sorry, that doesn’t count as mud. Go back and try again! The trail details are here though. http://tracks.org.nz/area/show/8

Roundy roundy, hitty-bally, Bicycle Polo racing from the bicycle polo champs in Birmingham

Here’s Ian Palmer’s video about mountain biking with dogs.

And now, Chipps has insisted on a tribute to the great Jon Lord, co-founder of Deep Purple, who died this week of pancreatic cancer. Sit back, turn up and rock out!
