Bloody great time of year for road riding. No ones abroad no ones racing as much the pace id slower and the countryside looks beautiful.

AndrewBF, that's one valley over from me, my regular loop goes round those hills there. I shall keep an eye out for hub gears.

I've met two people off of here whilst out and about on my bike in the past week. Small world...

Head for the beach 😮
i ride more in winter than summer as work shorter hours,
prefer it real cold than real hot...colder the better 😮
i stay away from muddy trails where unessecery damage is likely,stick to sandy coastal trails,
nightride 3 nights a week and beachriding most weekends...
beaches are always clean,often near deserted and stunningly scenic on a crisp clear day 😮

I do the same riding as in Summer still wear shorts(longs are for pansies) but may wear long sleeves.

The trick with winter riding is to do the 'Puffer 24hr.

After that anything feels like summer 🙂

Same as normal. Well, apart from the fact I spend much more time charging batteries, washing kit and much less time staying upright.
