I’ll get us started. First ride from Llangollen. How have I never ridden here before? It’s awesome – big skies, big hills, rocky descents, tough climbs and so very, very wet. I’ve not ridden down a river for 3 minutes before.
Good times. Some photos

Last one is the final climb. 25% gradient. 240m. Already climbed 1000m+. 1km of road hell. It was worth it for the descent. Next time I’ll get some pics of the descents as they were amazing.
As my nice bike pic thread quality day in the Lakes

@rocketdog
grew up in Alcester but dont recognise that, looking like either coldcomfort woods or a cheeky route up primrose hill? I guess thats as good as it gets for offroad round there!
Put together another little ride for my club. Only two others came in the end, with a few ducking out because of the weather forecast. Oh how we laughed at them!
Edit: Embedding Instagram posts only seems to work when I’m not trying.
It was my first time round so wasn’t really taking much notice of navigation, but it didn’t feel that tricky. The last descent is brilliant, make sure you’ve got a bit left for that!
See if this works……
Delamere Monster Cross. Camera flattens the gradient, a lot of the CX riders were running down, or had a foot out. Me, GERONIMOOOOOOOOOOOO!!
