Didn't really take any pics, but had a great (if not too short - only did around 11 miles) ride around Blacka, Devils Elbow, Houndkirk etc. The big stags need to be avoided as it's rutting season - one guy with a dog was getting a fair bit of grief from a very large one, it kept it's distance (just) but was NOT happy and making it's annoyance heard, very vocally. Magnificent sight though. We opted to go the other direction. Fabulous day for it though, followed by lots of beer
Tubeless guys with all the problems again lol 😉

A great hack around dryish Rossendale

Finished my weekend off by sneaking in another 1000 Meters this morning on a solo Golfie ride.

Went hunting for new gravel after I spotted a likely looking bridleway on a group road ride a few weeks ago. Did not disappoint.



Pretty easy to avoid the rain in the Chilterns today!
Bike in the Pub, found it, The Counting House, EC3, 50 Cornhill, London, EC3V 3PD. Now on my list to visit.
Left Bridlington at 3pm yesterday after a weekends work with an Italian colleague over, dropped him off at Manchester airport (after a great roast dinner at the 3 cups in Stamford Bridge as recommended by the boat we were working on’s captain), then drove down to the Monmouth Premier inn, couple of great hours on Jonesy's trails at at Staunton this morning.
