went back to cathkin braes to ride the orange jump track and let the kids play on the pump track. I can’t jump for shit but the vid will let you see the trail. It’s been busy every time I’ve been ( went back today ) worthy investment.
Nope, sick as a dog all week and I can't seem to shift it. Getting really fed up and increasingly grumpy.
**** you germs, .
Just a pootle out to a local park for me for some manual practice. First time I've ever tried to get the front wheel more than 3 inches off the ground.

Yes, I know I need to get lower over the back wheel, and look up! 🙂 Manged to loop out once, but didn't jump off the bike, my arse is going to hurt tomorrow!
looking good with the manuals.
Cheers, they're only short at the moment, about 2-3 bike lengths, but I was pleasantly surprised that my technique is decent, going down to the saddle then back - just need a load more practice. 🙂
BHF Peaks ride this morning. Wet under wheel but thankfully dry overhead.

Late afternoon local run, dry n windy.
Pinched an hour out on local trails this morning between bouts of house fettling. Reet nice, too.
Shaking down the new bike on the Glenfiddich estate. Nothing fell off, not even me. More pictures and ramblings once I've collected my thoughts.

Lakes Saturday was nice.

My first day out on a mountain bike in a couple of years. Rode The Beast in the morning and Tarw Du in the afternoon. I discovered that road bike fitness is great on the uphills but pretty much useless for the downs. If I was relying on my skills to pay the bills I'd would be massively in debt.

marshalling at SXC yesterday - busy and entertaining 🙂
Ten Under the Ben Solo for me and 2 of my team mates (I'm the one on the left), beat them both, just missed the podium in Vets finishing 4th (14th Overall) with 9 laps, 153km and nigh on 4000m of climbing in 10hrs 24mins
@Richardmunro the Golden Rule and The Unicorn round the corner are my two fave boozers there; strong choice.
I only managed a little 23km local road ride, due to three days of building Ikea furniture.
Up Glen Clova on saturday
Pitlochry/Tummel on sunday
Saturday I left the wife with the Cafe Adventure ladies ride and headed off for a ride around Ladybower on my own. Sunday went out on the road bike with the wife for an easy couple of hours.
Quick spin round Nant Yr Arian today
Where in the lakes is that Richard ?
Out last night for 14mile loop, was nice and quite and got a few PBs as well.
Also up Stanage!
