i well and truly embraced the filth today glad i put guards on was a very last minute choice took me a half hour to clean the bike when i got back and about an hour and a half to get me clean and warm in the bath the clothes are still going round in the washing machine and the strangest thing is I LOVED EVERY MINUTE ๐Ÿ˜€

Me too! I really enjoyed it as well, the weather was perfect, but I did wonder where all the other mountain bikers were, I only saw one in 30 miles.

and me! was a brilliant sloppy, muddy, wet day on the local trails. i went from clean to caked in mud with in 2 mins. Brilliant! and just to show off how muddy i was i thought it would be fun to ride through the middle of town full of sunday shoppers. Young lads looked in amazement while there mums just shook there head at me in disgust. Ace! i love winter riding.

Bring on the mud

Aston hill was a little entertaining today. The slipperiest I have ever seen it. Amazing fun though.
Not being able to stand up due to slipping over after crashing on DH4 was a highlight

yup me too, looked like i had been pebbled dashed after three hours on the chilterns

plus a bit bashed up from general slideyness which ended in me dropping it on a wet root and flying into a tree, luckily hitting the ground a few times scrubbed off some of my speed :O)
