I shall be going to work. Sadly not rideable.

I’ll be going to work in a couple of hours 🙁 So I’ll be sat in a sound booth with no windows for what looks to be an awesome afternoon/evening. Monday and Tuesday off though and the weather looks set to continue, so not too bad I guess as all the trails should be empty 🙂

Last minute trip to North Wales! Shoop a doop!

Two hours moderate XC (wetter than expected and not a fit as hoped!)

Lions 1H

Revision supervision this afternoon

Been for a walk, fixed bikes, watched some fun in our front garden again…

Off to get the train over to Manchester to see Muse at the Ethiad in a minute. Should be good.

Found myself kicking my heals in an Airport hotel, but then I spotted a bike 😀

Pentlands yesterday on the hardtail and the Bethany Sportive today on the road bike. Great weather and thoroughly enjoyed both rides.

I’m on nights, I thought about a spin earlier as the sun got out but remembered I had to go shopping for presents for 2 staff who are leaving this weekend.

the missus is out “doing lunch” with the girls. Its lobbing it down and Im stuck inside with a 3 month old baby

Fab ride in the Wylye Valley, southern Wiltshire and I’m grinning from ear to ear. 😀 Cleaned a couple of climbs that were over 200 feet each and what a feeling that was!

To actually finish a ride thinking I could have done a bit more – that’s not happened for 4 years!

Just ridden/pushed/carried/swore my way from Loch Muick to the top of Lochnagar via Broad Cairn. Rode back down to Loch Muick via Glas-allt-Shiel……which was rather difficult.
