Flipety that was a hard 3 miles home

Built a logging trailer from scrap and some wheelbarrow wheels to collect wind fallen logs and today was its first outing .
I had spotted some nice fallen brances about 3 miles from home nice and accessible for the bike but got a bit greedy and I think overloaded it a tad for my one trout power legs.

was I glad to have a proper granny gear or I would have had to leave some logs halfway up the first hill .

Great start to the 2014 training legs now feel like I have done 25 miles in the dales.

Chris, I think the BMDC guy said we could have any of the trees in the area we were trail building, as they were clearing them. I can ask permission and have keys for access if you want to go up there with a saw??????????

Best thing on STW so far this year!

Tractor sized fat bike tyres seem appropriate!

I don't know, I need to make contact with him again to find out what's happening. The last we heard (Sept), the Head Councillor was having a meeting with 'them' to straighten things out. It's all gone very quiet tho. I'll phone him next week and also ask if the offer to take some trees is still there.

Bloody hell that looks like hard work!

Reminds me of testing the load limits of my Blackburn rack at a scout camp back in 1986, loading it up with logs and riding was way more fun than just carrying them 😉

Thats a good load trout! 🙂
The dual wheels stop the front end lifting if overladed i imagine?
The BOB trailers do this until underway if overloaded

Hauled some wood off the coast today with the FatBOB trailer!, some nice Oak washed into John Muir Bay from the recent Tyne river spate after the heavy rains 🙂

Hauling wood is a great work out and free heating for the house! :mrgreen:
