Mork - did you head up quite far on the SDW? Saw a yellow bike when going down one of the hills but didn't pay too much attention. Was near West Dean woods.

Fantastic weekend, but full of a stinking cold! However, wasn't going to miss the weather even if I wasn't up for biking, so instead went for a walk.

Did see three lads on the top on bikes, two in shorts, and thier legs were red raw with the cold. It was -12 in the wind on the summit! I wear shorts most of the year, but seriously - get some longs when it is that cold.
My legs are screwed - they forgot how to do mountains without a bike!
first day out this year due to head cold, managed 17miles but felt fanastic, cleared my head and chest....
Another amazing day today. I am just off on my bike looking for a waterfall a friend told me about. Will be taking a lot of pics today if I can keep warm enough. 😀

Saturday, messing about in the local woods, crash, sore hand. Sunday, out with my youngest in other local woods. She crashed on some frozen mud. No hard done. Top weekend. Amazing skies, which I entirely failed to get any pics of.
Enjoyed the first decent daylight ride for months, good to get into the Pentlands 'no-go' zones (personally enforced) while the frost's down. Wish had today off too, -3.5° this morning.

A few from the FOD yesterday!
Had an amazing day riding at Surrey Hills - didn't get any pics but took the GoPro which captured the day quite nicely. Stayed really clean until the field at the end where my esteemed co-riders managed to fall off whilst riding in a perfectly straight line (last vid)

Managed to knacker my boots Saturday morning removing a stuck cleat. No riding for me until Tuesday pm. Not jealous, no not at all.....
Well I didn't find the waterfalls as I took the wrong road out of Drumfries but still a cracking ride today.
