Pinched this video off a mate - I'm the middle one down...

Sheep Skull and minor off[/url]
Went out for a bimble this arvo and having stopped to take a shot for this thread, I rejoined the trail slowly cruising when I spotted this little fella just the other side of the hedge from me..
I couldn't get the second hand camera to do anything and it wasn't until later that I realised it was on a custom setting that I didn't recognise, but still managed to grab these two pics.. (oh for the days when I didn't instinctively reach for a camera when encountering nature close up)
The deer wasn't shy in the slightest and once he'd noticed me he moseyed over for a closer look
Bit late to the party but had a great weekend in the Lakes with the wife for our wedding anniversary. No big mountain riding but great all the same.

Shaun! We had a great time with him and Cilla (not sure of the correct spelling).
But the dog wins.
Look at all those sunny summer pictures..
Let's face it, this is what it's still like here in sunny England.. 😕

Just back from a fab week in Dorset, on the Isle of Purbeck. Lots of walking and running, plus my first proper bike ride in years after recently getting back into it. After umming and aahing about 'upgrading' my bike to something more current, the week has convinced my to hang on to my Stiffee. Since the oily bits are already pretty worn, I took the opportunity to ride everywhere in the middle ring. Conversion to 1x11 is now on the cards.

Haha! Love the bandging.
First weekend since I got the Ok to ride from my foot operation. Had a couple of pootles from home in the week then this weekend we have been playing in Wharncliffe and up onto Cutgate. Foot feels a lot better now I don't have as much metal in it.
Wharncliffe yesterday
Cutgate today

Biggest road ride of the year so far for me on Saturday. Set off from my house in Lancashire at 6am
