And the trails are dry, fast, loose and dusty 🙂

No pics but I had a lovely early 40 mile spin on the road bike and though it was a bit nippy first thing it really did feel like the start of summer 🙂

It was a bit nippy at the Chase first thing this morning. I got whipped by a passing branch on a cold erect nip....that really stung! Didn't take long for it too warm up though and it felt lovely.

The off piste stuff was riding really well, with all if the gloopy mud pretty much gone.

It needs to be hosted somewhere on the internet, so there is a URL. Flickr, Picassa, that kind of thing.

Print it out and push it against the screen really hard.

if its on facebook right click the image and click "copy image url"

Not sure if you can do that off a phone tho, maybe only from a desktop.

The start of summer is ace.
Some of this:
[url= https://farm8.staticflickr.com/7340/13926544984_3065b68757_b.jp g" target="_blank">https://farm8.staticflickr.com/7340/13926544984_3065b68757_b.jp g"/> [/img][/url][url= https://flic.kr/p/ndDbCy ]Ben Venue[/url] by [url= https://www.flickr.com/people/88555557@N00/ ]matt_outandabout[/url], on Flickr
A wee bit of this:
[url= https://farm8.staticflickr.com/7348/13926566013_aca2a02c62_b.jp g" target="_blank">https://farm8.staticflickr.com/7348/13926566013_aca2a02c62_b.jp g"/> [/img][/url][url= https://flic.kr/p/ndDhT8 ]Ben Venue[/url] by [url= https://www.flickr.com/people/88555557@N00/ ]matt_outandabout[/url], on Flickr
A load of fun doing this:
[url= https://farm8.staticflickr.com/7116/13926559095_deb17ece92_b.jp g" target="_blank">https://farm8.staticflickr.com/7116/13926559095_deb17ece92_b.jp g"/> [/img][/url][url= https://flic.kr/p/ndDfPR ]Ben Venue[/url] by [url= https://www.flickr.com/people/88555557@N00/ ]matt_outandabout[/url], on Flickr
Ending up here:
[url= https://farm8.staticflickr.com/7354/13903470652_54b71992c4_h.jp g" target="_blank">https://farm8.staticflickr.com/7354/13903470652_54b71992c4_h.jp g"/> [/img][/url][url= https://flic.kr/p/nbAVrf ]Ben Venue[/url] by [url= https://www.flickr.com/people/88555557@N00/ ]matt_outandabout[/url], on Flickr
And then we eyed up the next plan...

Little spin on a borrowed Genesis Vapour around Anglezarke with a loop of the red at Healey Nab thrown in for good measure. Good fun 🙂

Stu : There's no power in my legs these days so i dunno if it's worth coming out riding wi you's as i'd hold you up big style but I'll certainly meet up wi you's at some point, the weather up here in Aviemore for the past week has been amazing so i've been happy to dawdle everywhere and take my time and admire the views….get sunburnt…drink from my hip flask 😀

mrmo : we'll have less of that thank you very much, go and start your own thread entitled "[i]Show us your shit weather pics"[/i]

soma.

It's not about the speed.
But it is about the company so don't give us any of that shit.
A ride with you is worth it at any speed. 8)
We can have a nice bimble with a few sips of something nice and just talk shite in the forest.
