The pub owners weren't 'over pleased' when we turned up for the after ride drinks.... can't think why 🙄

people always under estimate the braking effect of water, you need to be able to manual all the way across the stream or atleast most of the way otherwise you're carrying speed, weight gets thrown forward by braking effect from water on backwheel and suddenly water is also slowing down your front wheel -> OTB

Soft landing tho 🙂
