For me, Cut Gate tomorrow and then maybe sneak out for a couple of hours on Sunday evening from home around Calderdale. Looking forward to it!
Local road race Saturday.
Then Sunday I can enjoy a relaxed paced road training ride through the Chilterns. I shall be recovering and going steady which will give many a MTBer the chance to post 'I owned a fully lycra'd up roadie and left him in my wake' Monday morning ๐
Dude to spending last weekend in Afan I've decided to reduce my wife points overdraft and spend the weekend bike free.... sort of, so taking this afternoon off to do a good 40miler over dartmoor tehe... and hopefully get up early enough on Sunday to do a quick blast before wify awakes! Hopefully will mean I avoid all annoying fair weather riders!
๐ I'm going to a friends house - and the 55Km Devon Dirt is on on sunday ๐ - poo like to do both ๐
Doing the Wiggle ups and downs mtb ride near Dorking. Be interesting to ride somewhere new without havign to worry about the route too much.
Big STW Purbecks ride!
I would have been belting round the track around my local resevoir on Sunday, but my new bik (Merlin Malt 2) doesn't get here until next weekend or so.
Hence, I must bide my time.
CutGate- Might have another try at that. Is it dry enough now? Recommendation on route starting point etc?
Syfydrin (Continental) at Nant-yr-Arian + rideout from home tonight (30Km)
Dyfi Enduro course (all which is accessible anyway) pre-ride on Sunday (~50Km)
I have a biking weekend fest going on. Saturday is a day on the mendips, Sunday is Cwmcarn DH track day.
Hora - it'll be fine. Just start at Langsett or Fairholmes (?) and do out and back with a loop at the Langsett end (look at the OS map - theres an obvious BW loop)
I set off from Fairholmes the only time I did it and hated the tedious bit along the reservoir and the boggy bit up.
Langsett- is there a start point (obvious?)
Up & down Snowdon for me..... ๐
Racing at Hopton for me.
Lammermuirs tonight - Innerleithen tomorrow - Ben Vorlich/Stuc a Chroin on Sunday. I might not take the bike on Sunday!!

Just got a lovely new bike ๐ Short route from home later and a longer Dales ride tomorrow. Gentle road ride on Sunday as I am likely to be slightly hungover from a friends birthday Saturday night.
SS around my local woods this weekend, big bike is causing me no end of hassle at the moment ๐ก
local loop on the Lincolnshire Wolds at least once. Possibly on my SS now it has shiny new non wobbly wheel bearings. Possibly on gears if i want more of a pootle.
A Dartmoor bivi for me and several others, but without bikes 'cos one of the gang is still nursing a broken arm. Then, hopefully, a ride or two at Nant yr Arian sometime early next week ๐

Jamie was up there today .It'll never be better .Blue skies and dust magic !
Isle of Wight.
My hay fever is bad at the mo, so a bit of cheeky clifftop riding over Tennysons Down breathing in the sea air should work wonders.
