A quick Smuggler try out ride this morning up in Kentmere, more snow than I expected up on Green quarter, and quite a lot of standing water, it was a fantastic ride.
Looks like we missed this storm you guys are having 'darn sarth'

As for the Smuggler, well it's going to need some 'fettling' for me to be as confident (and it ride as well) as the Turner 5 Spot on the Rocky DH's 🙁
Nice one. Have you just bought the Smuggler from Wheelbase by any chance?
Lovely 🙂

Nope bought off here, why do you ask?
'Twas glorious up there today 🙂 the ruined barn looked stunning in the morning sun. Think i saw you guys climbing up from the hall? You know that's the wrong way round right 🙂
is it, because Green quarter was a hoot that way round. 😀
were you guys dropping down near the stream crossing and sheep pens ?
Yep that was us group of 4. I'm the tubby bloke on a well worn Scott spark 🙂

and I thought you were just well wrapped up given the temp 😉
Garburn was perfect yesterday afternoon only had a short walk on one section! The descent was interesting it was all about hanging loose, 3 rivers was riding well despite the slop!
