Spending a few days off work in the sunny South. Was gorgeous in The Purbecks earlier. Legs are a bit tired now 🙂

That's my local ride, lovely this time of year. Try coming back in the middle of February it's a different kettle of fish then.

I'd never ride there offroad in Winter 🙂
Have you got a gpx route for it? Lovely pics. Purbecks are great and not far for a swim at the end of your ride.
Did you manage to land the drop-off in the last pic? 😀

I have but I'm sure a proper local would have a much better route. I was just winging it...

That's just what I did 🙂
Stunning Ride!!
I am very jealous I did years ago but still remember it fondly.
Very close to the [url= http://www.bankesarms.com/ ]Isle of Purbeck Brewpub[/url] also for a post-ride pint!

You should head south and do it again 🙂
Great photies and bring back some good riding memories from when I lived down South during the 80/90's. We did a loop from the Sandbanks ferry through Corfe to Lulworth then back along the coast...sublime on a warm summers day.
Now I have moved away I have to make do with trails here in Scotland 🙂
