Lack of riding - too many 'kid' things on 🙁
But the garden is tidy, and the jam is superb, tree's were climbed and hills walked...

Last time I did tHAT ride last year I nearly died!!
Not sure if it was the heat or the warm chicken pie in Sedburgh but the climb thereafter was a severe problem!!!!!!!!
One of my fav routes btw.
Tjnr did a 28ml run over that route this year 😯

Took this while out riding a couple of weeks ago.

weekend autumnal pics preferably 🙂

Sorry the ones in Afan were last Autumn 🙂

I seem to have lost the ability to post from google pics;
click share
get shareable link
copy and paste into img thing^
et voila!

sapnin there then?

I'll post a few Greek ones in the next day or two, if I can motivate myself - to post photos, that is, not to ride. The riding is superb and I've cleared and ridden a few monopatia, where, I would bet my life, no bike has ever been before.
First time in my life that I've not considered going out without knee pads. Troy Lee 5400's if anyone's interested - pretty much unnoticeable, even in 30+ temperatures....
Does this seem like random rambling? Blame ultra cheap wine at "H Mouries "in Platsa.

Almost making me homesick, but not quite.......

Is that Jocks road in your second pic Windysurfer?
very photogenic, been on the to do list for too long...

More preparation for riding than actual riding. A spot of autumnal trailbuilding...

Spied a potential gap on an old unused line
[img] ?t=1445190341[/img]

with a fairly overgrown landing
[img] ?t=1445190338[/img]

that got cleared
[img] [/img]

and magically got turned into a stepdown with a swoopy [s]chicken[/s] winter line
[img] ?t=1445190341[/img]

Big double on the stepdown line is next on the list and the two lines will join up, ready for action.

The little fella doing some final packing of the road gap take off

@Simon: Nice pics, are those taken by cadair idris in wales by any chance? The landscape looks very similar to that area.

No, Lake District, Four Passes ride.

Nice, traditional 'MTB' kinda outing on Saturday - through the woods, along some greenlanes / farm-tracks, back-country lanes, a bit of main road here and there.

Its looking towards Boredale from Boredale Hause

Love those sunset pics up there...

Consigned to the (new to me) cx bike this weekend due to a severe lack of free time just at the minute. Still managed to squeeze in 40 miles of local tracks with a little bit of road chucked in for good measure. Easily the cheapest bike I've ridden in 10 years and all the more fun for it.

[img] [/img]

And that is real genuine post-ride dust right there. In October!

Local ride on the Niner for me

First ride on my new (and first) build up at Gisburn, nothing fell off the bike which is a win in my book.

Spent a bit of time on the Greno side, Abigale plucked up the courage to attempt and clear the double on DH3.

Last weekend the bike was just for the ride in. This has become a rare thing as usually I choose a mountain that is mostly rideable. I'm pretty accustomed to carrying a bike uphill but no longer used to walking down. This has been made apparent by the fact that my legs still ache form it four days later. It was a lot of downhill though. Warm sun, frosty shadows, lingering mist - very autumnal. Ben Lui:
