aaah well that's one bit of good news monkey..
according to stw my tyres will fall apart before I leave the house and my geo means that I can only ride on the moon.. so I've decided to wear my bike as a hat and bounce on my arse like a spacehopper around the trails on sunday..
falling down smallacombe rocks will be a breeze..
I think a blindfold might be the way forward..!!
Rolling out my 456 (now with new beefier 130mm forks) on CrispOi's Dartmoor exursion. See you tomorrow @ the House of Marbles then Yunki & Trailmonkey, & some unknown others 🙂
Down my driveway about 50 metres to the street, 200 metres along the street to the corner, back again, then back up the driveway. Chair waiting with cup of tea, piece of chocolate and view of the yellow forested Shropshire hills. Aaah.
Going for a quick blast round my local woodlands in nottingham today, them off to do the bakewell circuit as described in the white peak mountainbiking book, the weather is lush for this time of year! About this time last year it dumped with snow then dropped to minus 17, and that made me want to do nothing!
45mile mostly off road route around Brickhill woods and Millbrook tomorrow morning, hope the weather stays like this.
Just up from night shift and heading to Ae in an hr.
Then night shift again @ 6
Then Mabie on Sun 😯
Glentress for a last coffee & cake at the Hub on Mon 😆
Possible night ride Tues
Go-Ride club Wed
Possible night ride @ Mabie after work Thurs
Then nothing other than 3 work commutes till Monday 😮
Must get the decorating finished before Xmas tho 💡
Just local road/bridleway rides for me this weekend, but I went to Woburn on Thursday which was awesome. Going to get my Trailstar built back up with Pikes soon so I can start ht'ing off road again. Getting bored of the spongey sloppy feeling fs!
sherwood pines was absolutely sublime today, low sun shafting through the tall pine trees with yellow glasses gave it that sepia/oil painting/other-worldly effect.
I really do rate it pretty highly now.
Awesome day up Snowden on Saturday - brilliant weather & awesome night time downhilling!
Best ride i've ever done! 😀
