Had a lovely crisp 50km MTB ride.
Headed down the Otter river at dawn, over to Woodbury Common and back via East Hill.
Devon rambling at it's best 😁

Happy trails everyone

Went out this morning and there was no snow - so minutes later everything was white

@teethgrinder - did you ride it out 🙂

Love to see the snowy pics.  We were out in the FoD/Yat where we had sunshine, cloud, rain, sleet, snow and then more rain. Funnily enough I didn't take any pics as it was so bloody cold! Still good to get out.

I did finally finish getting the Tempest tubeless. Celebrated with some Panaracer Gravelking 42mms. They feel great.

King Alfreds Way here we come (although maybe late summer not May as planned...)

I changed the wheel set today on the bike and hit the old railway lines and tracks locally, plenty mud, snow and some frozen puddles deeper than I anticipated! Wrestled with a partially frozen hose pipe to clean up the bike afterwards

Started sunny on the Cotswolds today then the snow came which was great only problem ground did not stay frozen like Christmas day so the mud in places was a complete cogging nightmare by the end of the ride the snow has turned the chain from Chocolate brown back to silver so not to bad easy to wash the bike in the end.

First ride outdoors of 2021. Just the local bridleways that I've been pounding round for most of 2020 but it did feel good to have mud all over the shoes and beneath the wheels.

Not a particularly pretty shot but it sums up how I felt while riding, bored of the same old view but glad to look down and not see the towel under the turbo trainer and happy as a pig in poop 😁

@ajantom

I actually thought the second pic down was an old Summer shot or something at first!😁

Didn't make it out until the 2nd, but took the whole family to Noosa. Longest ride the 7 and 9 year old have ever done - 22.5km of singletrack with 430m elevation! Their mum was probably the tiredest.

An almost sunny South Downs yesterday. Spot the hang glider 🙂

(Blimey, doesn't look that gloomy on my ipad)

Some great pics all! I'm jealous! We've just had wet, damp murk here so haven't yet ventured out of the garage. Will make some effort to do so at some point this week though!

Would love a bit of snow!
