Got a notion for a W.O.L bimble to a Scalectrix push up ride down tomorrow.

Waste of time or still intact?

you'll be ok, i'm sure it'll be wet but you can look for wheel eating pits on the way up ๐Ÿ™‚

some nice wee trails in the woods at the bottom to slide around on too

It's the woody trails I'm really going for.... But might as well start as high as I can.

Even though it's now morning, I'm looking outside and trying to convince myself there will be no massive headwind/flying sheep.

I can confirm that it is windy! But one mans headwind is another mans tailwind!

I'll get around to it.........

Probably.

This will be a night ride at this rate.

Since about 0700 I've been drumming up the enthusiasm for a ride up there and a bivi out tonight, but it's not working yet

This is definately "finding an excuse day".

So far I have a very, very, very slight saddle sore.

The Mrs has called in sick and needs [s]"tlc"[/s] constant attention.

I've already cycled to Tesco and back.

Shoes are still wet from Thursdays mud-fest.

Hills still there tomorrow.
