Photos from your 1-a-day

A good 17 miles up round Cardiff and the hills behind:

Sadly slightly ruined by coming across a couple who had come all the way from Bristol to walk their dog and towards the end finding lots of groups not keeping their distance form anyone. Roads are busier than last week too, mainly private cars.

Lovely mellow, loamy turn in the local woods. One of the benefits of lockdown has been finding a few nice things close to home. #loam #loamlife #woods #mtblife #goldenhour #lightbro #bikelife #berm #mountainbiking #nature #lancashire

This mornings bimble. Got time for a bimble every day now I’ve been furloughed.

Nice bluebells there Stu.

Fab aren’t they.
Went through the same woods last week and there was no sign of them so it was a pleasant surprise.

Just coming out here too, but not seen such a dramatic display yet.

Mix of gravel and road on the Sequoia this afternoon, 22.5km in all – perfect weather!

A Photo a Ride 2020 #28 Mostly Mistaken Machine. Pretty much just a gravel ride, on pretty much a singlespeed dirt jump bike with a stupid long (non-dropper) seatpost. Who thought that was a good idea then? Glorious day for a nice, mellow, woodsy ride nonetheless (even if my lower back isn't currently agreeing). #aphotoaride #fattyresurfer #MTB #MTBlife #lifebehindbars #bike #cyclist #surfingdirt #neverknowinglyunderprocessed #cotic #coticbikes #BFe #singlespeed #onegearnoidea #monochrome #blackandwhite #colourisoverrated #2020feelslikeamonochomeyear #wrongbike #shadow #sun #issummerhereyet #gravel #notgravel #gravelnotgravel #broughtapumpkintoaknifefight

Yesterday

First road (only) ride in about a year yesterday after just MTbing and riding my CX bike on paths. Was a lovely day for it and I enjoyed that nice feeling you get when you get into a smooth rhythm on the big ring and can just churn away.

After a long time out of the saddle I’ve really enjoyed being back on it lately. Hopefully the feeling lasts.

From last night’s cross bike trundle

It’s our youngest daughters 22nd birthday today. She should have been getting all excited about disappearing to Canada after Uni finished along with fitting in some races.
Instead she has been doing jigsaws and trying to keep her fitness levels up.
Tonight’s celebrations include watching a film an eating birthday cake. I may need to stop my eldest baking as we haven’t finished the last one

Today’s is chocolate fudge cake

A 23k round trip from the door to the highest point in Shropshire, Brown Clee hill yesterday afternoon. A bit of road then some bridleways and byeways I’d not used before to get there. Found a memorial I’d not noticed before to the 23 allied and German airmen who died in the Clee hills during WW2. Didnt see one car and barely saw another soul.

@Tracey – wow your daughter is talented!

More rigid fun. Got a load of PRs on climbs thanks to the low weight.

A bit of funky cloud formation on tonight’s ride

Not going to post this morning’s photo as it’s at the end of a rather cheeky trail.

Was another bloody enjoyable ride though. Took the MTB this time and much fun was had. Having said that, I did take the chicken run down one particular section I normally ride. Seemed a damn sight steeper than normal and the parched conditions made it super sketchy. No way was I going to risk going gnar.

@ifra – that looks lovely. Where is it?

Day off today & the sun’s shining..

@ElShalimo thanks it is a place called Wavering Down on the Mendip hills, the view is looking over towards The Quantock Hills and Exmoor in the distance

👍

Yesterday’s ride was a short loop around the local hills. Also did a little loop in some woods that one of the local estates has put in and is open to the public though they don’t advertise it. Nice and warm but a strong headwind at times. Trails were dry and dusty.

Not been out for a very long time so went for a bimble with MrsSB who’s been furloughed and seems to have commandeered by bike!

I decided to mix it up a bit with my one a day yesterday. Got the Bauers on and had an early morning jaunt down into town to skate the empty car parks. It was ace!

If anyone had seen me I must have looked like an advert for a holiday resort specifically designed to appeal to middle-aged gay Germans, but I really don’t care 😀

Today’s was a bit more back to normal

The wee lad decided to move on from his toddlebike today. Has previously just been pushed about a bit on it, but he picked it up and within minutes was zooming. Great.

He got a new bike and went straight for the pavé. Way more of a flahute than me.

First ride out after 14 days self-isolation. Man, I would love to be up there.

Local covid ride, a chance to revisit local spots and uncovered this little copse full of bluebells.
