We did a ride last night from work, starting in Kings Langley, Herts. Was excellent fun.

Well, that was extremely damp!

Made the Summit of Beinn Ghlass, decided the rain and wind really wasn't going to give us a break so descented to the beallach between Ghlass and Lawers then down the Ghlass bypass path. Fantastic Singletrack despite the weather! Made it back to the car at 2am and Edinburgh for 4am ๐Ÿ™‚

JPR may have some photos..

Work today will be bought to you by coffee!

Night shift on the 20th, even so didnt see the sun come up far to cloudy. Walked Waun y llyn last night with family still no sunset but dramatic , rain filled clouds, over the Clwyds.
Full of cold and Hayfever so laying of the bike for a day or so

Feel like I've been cheated- looking foreward to getting naked and covering myself in blue wode!!!!!

Sounds good Fraser ... I was supposed to be joining your group for the Lawers bivvy but thankfully our driver (Roland - Simon's flatmate) wussed out and we ended up in the pub playing Scrabble ๐Ÿ™‚

๐Ÿ˜† I think it might of dawned on Roland yesterday afternoon it wasn't going to be quite the ride he was expecting - when I spoke to him on Tuesday he was talking about taking a BBQ and wood for a fire!

I'm sure we'll meet you for a ride soon...

Yes he told me on Monday night to keep space in my backpack for wood ๐Ÿ™‚

Would definitely be up for a bivvy / bothy ride some other time though. At least a bothy would let Roland have his fire!

Super quick rough edit. And I stop filming pretty quickly as my camera was getting a bit too wet.

Nice work on the video. Even with the heavy Fish and Chip bias! ๐Ÿ˜€
