Yep.Y Das.
It's great watching the gliders being launched while you push up it.
Here's a few pics from yesterdays ride down here in Cornwall in some rare sunshine, early start to account for the cheeky nature of the trails. Normal service has resumed now - pouring down once more!

No biking images as it was only a morning potter out around Penmachno on Saturday. Here's some landscape pics from Sunday's walk out from Bethesda.

Sunday, Verbier from Col des Mines prior to Valon d'Arby
Saturday, Chamonix no photos but a gashed shin and dislocated finger = a very cautious Sunday
Three rides in three days: the absolutely soaking wet ride, the 30 miles in 3 hours ride and, today, the relaxed exploratory trip to Stonehenge ride. Can't compete with the lovely photos and locations on thread already, but here is my pic from today, Stonehenge just visible!:

Nant Y Arian Saturday - First time there. Did the Summit trail and then the wossname shorter one and then a couple of runs down High as a Kite to finish. Great place and quite unlike most trail centres with the bulk of the climbing being towards the end of the ride.

Antur Stiniog uplift day on Sunday
Really good day there on the hardtail, despite losing a few runs due to running a crappy single ply crossmark on the rear. The black run gave me 4 pinch flats.....at the same time.
Stuck to the blue run after that as it was the most flowy and fun. Fantastic riding venue and getting better as more tracks open but please, more floaty jumps like the beautiful two before the bridge! 8)

Today, too wet for photos but a great little blast around MBR at Coed Y Brenin. 3 holes/tears in the sidewalls of that pesky crossmark after the descent back to the river there and that tyre has had its day... I only bought the thing Thursday! 😥
Great weekend. Sleep now. 🙂
58 mile ride around local trails

This weekend, I mostly stayed inside my home in Lincoln due to kid sitting and the crappy weather...
Can't wait till I can ditch my job and move! Shame I get paid far too much to consider it at the moment...
Just a bit of localgheylite for me 🙁
