Cornwall, Devon, Somerset, Gwent, Hereford and Worcestershire.
Riding the longest continuous constant downhill singletrack in the lakes tomorrow.
Did the classic Sedbergh, Calf, Bowderdale, Ravenstonedale Loop today. Bowderdale ST to myself, magic.
A couple of days in the Dales (Swaledale, Wensleydale etc) over the weekend.
Hoping the weather is good for everyone!!!
Cheers, Paul.
Anyone riding in the Peak is in for a treat; been out every day for almost a week- it is almost too dusty and dry!
Dumfries for us, so probably Mabie, Ae, Kirroughtree, Drumlanrig, etc 🙂
Big ride in the Chilterns tomorrow and either Sunday/monday. Club ride Sat. Couple of days planning my 5 week Scotland road trip in June and then off to Wales for next weekend
Going to try and spend a few hours in a local spot and grow some kahunas
Setting off tomorrow morning with the mrs for a 40-ish miler, mostly off road.
From here (Whitley Bay-ish), up through Blyth up to Newbiggin-By-The-Sea, over through Ashington, all the way down to Cramlington via Stannington and home.
Longest trip with the mrs so far, can't wait.
Nowhere for me other than roads or maybe a little bit of local flat xc 😥 Just had to shell out over £300 on my car (wheel + tyre problems) so really I can't afford the petrol to get anywhere. I may go over to Stile Cop or something on Monday as I'm doing two gigs Sat/Sunday nights so will get a bit of money!
Wouldn't mind trying somewhere new though and something more xc-ish. Anyone riding the Peaks on monday and don't mind showing a slow one round?
Got a new bike to try out and fettle with so I'll be around the Chilterns most weekend.
What you got then Croc?
I'm riding the Quantock Hills on [b][i]Good[/i][/b] Friday. Highly anticipated ride.
I was going to ride some trails tomorrow and sat, with a downhill uplift day on sunday.
But went the bike shop today to do some work to the bike, and i found that my frame fell to pieces as i started unbolting components, so no riding for me this weekend, until i get a warranty replacement set of linkages for my bike.. :/
If this head cold clears I'm definitely having a day on the bike on sat, probably Conwy mountain/tal-y-fan/drum area, or Marin. Bunged up at the mo 🙁 Sunday walk with some mates over The Carneddau.
hopefully either do aston hill or swinley for a day plus the continual bmx track sessions at one of three tracks 😉
Commitments all weekend (as usual) But I have managed to wriggle out of today's pointless prior engagement thus giving me 5 hours (count 'em )freedom (count 'em again)
And I am going..
Now 🙂
Was up at 5:30am this Morning to go round gisburn Forrest with the dog. Great ride,didn't see another soul till I got back to the carpark at 9am. Judging by the amount of cars turning up it looked like it was going to be busy there today.
Peak district, prob cutgate, Saturday.

Did 17 mile road bike dash this afty. Might get a mountain bike jaunt round Rivi on Monday morning.
Lakes next weekend though.
Lakes tomorrow. I might be able to show you around _tom_. I'll send you a gpx if you've got the means to use it?
I'll be heading up Haldon for a couple hours on saturday to try and explore the 'unofficial' trails, maybe Woodbury on sunday if i get a couple hours free.
I'm trying to avoid doing anything where it will be too busy, living in the westcountry definitely has it's down sides during holiday times.
I'm thinking of heading somewhere more exciting on monday or tuesday as i have the whole days free, i'm thinking Dartmoor, Exmoor, Cwmcarn or even Afan
What you got then Croc?
One of these!
