Local blast was just what I needed on Saturday.
Bit slippy in the FoD. We didn't have 24/12 rain but we caught the end of it for 4 hours on Saturday night. This might explain:

The line was steep and right, I went straight on and hit a tree. Broke the clamp, zip-tied it back together, rode to PAB and they had a SLX lever in stock. Got to love that place! Rest of the ride was amusingly slippery. Still managed over 60km, no more accidents, a couple of beers in a pub with a band and - this morning - a nice yellow bruise 😉
Just the wet Saturday here. I also dropped eldest_OAB off at Corran ferry for a week at Gravity Camp with Ben Cathro / Abernethy.
Unfortunately the forecast for the week looks like the picnic on the way up:
