Rode some stuff today that I've never ridden in the dry before and couldn't believe how fun it was. What was previously a soggy connecting trail became the highlight of the ride. Hooray weather!

Ah, home... great pics. ๐Ÿ˜€

Ever since my first days on an MTB (1990), the Mineries were always the traditional start/end point of a ride. And if anybody had a new bike/fancy bit of kit (a flexstem, for example... ha ha), it was traditional form to 'debut' it at the Mineries first.

Yeah I rode down to Wells on the cycle track and Torr Wood to the Cathedral, then up Reservoir Lane, The New Cut and Rookham which is normally a descent, then Durston Drove, Eas****er Lane, Nine Barrows, Priddy Mineries, the normal loop of Stockhill Wood, Hunters' Lodge, cross fields to Pen Hill, and down Biddle Combe which dumps me near home.

Proper old-skool XC - none of your modern "trail riding" nonsense ๐Ÿ˜†
