36 miles - a mix of singletrack, fire road, road, farm track, rock tech and everything inbetween. Blummin size of a Magnum these days 🙁

Rare Wednesday night club ride outing for me (during term time it's tough to get home and out in time). Back to needing lights for the end of the ride, but allowed me to test the low light video capabilities of the Insta360 for the first time.

Always meant to get a photo of this rotten pine stump.

Beautiful outing on the gravel bike yesterday from Auchterarder to Dundee (carefully planned route to take full advantage of westerly wind!).

Lots of dusty dry farm gravel, then the Fife Coastal Path from Lindorres Distillery with several lovely sections of singletrack through old growth forest.

More fast farm tracks then the icing on the cake was a full gas hoon along the stunning sand dune/coastal pine forest singletrack in Tentsmuir. It's perfect for a gravel or CX bike as very few roots or rocks and basically flat with lots of little rollers and sand traps and endless fast corners and drifting back wheels. A fact not lost on me as I went chasing KOMs but closest I got was second by 2 seconds, d'oh!

Plan was to head up Colorado highest 14er, Mt Elbert, but both suffering colds ended that idea so we biked up the trail until it got more hike-a-bike than fun, turned around and whizzed back down. Then went exploring Leadvilles "rich" history.

South Pennine roads, tracks and stuff round Luddenden, Haworth, Wycollar, Colden etc. - bloody hot but hell of a head wind coming back over the Watershed from Colne.

Arran loop in, er, windy conditions. Buffeted round the east and south, bumped into two seasoned campaigners on Dawes tourers in Blackwaterfoot - one of them had been blown off crossing the string. Tail gale up the west coast, downpour over the boguille to base in Corrie. Invigorating!
