In hiding.
Bah humbug.
The hills will be packed with trippers in red sox and sandals.
I'll wait for night fall...
Cracking ride last night. Perfect dry trails. a few other bikers out, but not so many that I actually passed any on the trails, just saw them across the hills. Hurt myself climbing on the SS too hard. Plenty of medicinal Herefordshire Pale Ale.
Friday, riding at hamsterley with the mtbe crowd.
Saturday, probably a trip out with the wife and kids somewhere nice, maybe a castle.
Sunday, local ride on the morning, taking the kids swimming on the afternoon.
Monday, masterminding my plan for world domination, or of the weathers nice I might do something outside.
Finishing the decking in the garden
Installing lights around the decking
Wallpapering kids bedrooms
My parents round on Sunday
Monster In Law round on monday
It's all looking a bit anti bike at the moment 😥
Swinley tomorrow (or possibly Saturday depending on weather); running on Sunday probably. Plus lots of Xbox, GTA4, the Shield and such n such
Roper is away but I have still decided to try and do a Sierra de las Nieves ride (mountains north of Marbella) which will take me to a 1900m summit, the highest I will have ever been. As I will be riding solo, I won't be doing any heroics, and if the weather looks remotely dubious, or there is still snow, I'll head back and wait for Roper to get back from his break before trying again, maybe during the May bank holiday weekend.
Friday doing a 100 miler with some old roadie friends, London to Saffron Walden or something.
Saturday, ftting new bath & shower.
Sunday morning ride off road with my lad, then the local.
Monday morning fitting reccessed lights upstairs, followed by an afternoon of mooching about.
Friday working in a deserted pub, saturday pack up family and drive down to Tauranga for visit to proud grandparents and the jazz festival (read sunny booze up)hoping to get into the sea for the last time before it gets too parky.
monday back to 4 uncompleted assignments due the following week.harrumph!
matt, give us a shout if you want to hook up for some riding some time. I'm round the corner from Kenmore at the other end of Loch Tay.
Going home to visit the old folks, so hopefully Strathpeffer maybe Golspie if I can escape for long enough and a few wee local loops from back in the day.
Loch Muick tomorrow - although looking at the forecast, it won't be as nice as last years trip:

Made a promise to do a family thing this weekend - I am off easter egg rolling with my Aunts, Uncles, Cousins, Brother, Nieces resurecting a family tradition we had when my Gran was around.
Fingers crossed I will get to ride bikes on BH Monday somewhere.

Swello, always thought about doing the Loch Muick circuit. Looks like you do car park to Lochnagar and go round that way. How much hike a bike is there, especially the bit over to Cairn Bannoch?
Fix bikes, ride and do some reading/work for work.
Clean house/mess up.
Woohoo too-see other thread.
