An early start with me mucking around on my commute in the cold. Moon and sun present more by luck than judgement.

Bit of trail clearing/re routing for me so far.
Hopefully get to ride tomorrow and Sunday.

MTB in bits and I’m working all weekend. Didn’t want to waste a frosty Friday before work later so I took the monstercross out instead.

Just nipped out for a 5 mile lunchtime loop to the hill fort by the river.

couple of hours on the singlespeed today

you know it’s a nice day when you have shed layers after 15 mins

A wee bit snow to top up the meagre covering we’ve had meant another Fatbike trip today.

Back on the Swarf Contour 6 weeks after I threw myself off it and broke a little finger!

Relatively abstract bimble round the woods tonight.

Quick blast round at GT this morning while Mrsstu was on a skills and fitness session with The FNY Collective.

My way or the highway?
The more interesting ride home from yesterday

Bit dusty still locally today

Emergency pasty needed for re-energising after 30 miles into a headwind

Friday snowy Yat with fellow workshy friends.

Started in -5C, warming up on the climbs but it was cold on the descent. Snow at the top and patches of ice made for a very twitchy descent. Excellent fun.

A wee push up:

Me on my summer bike:

Dry and Sunny, but horribly cold and windy, I think tomorrows going to be somewhat wetter.

An exhausting 71km solo ( hence the dull photos) ride, almost entirely off road with 1350m of climbing.
Pretty cold too, a real winter adventure.

I had a pootle up a mountain to look for a luxury villa.

Got 2 for the price of one 🙂

Was up one of these,

There’s a castle a bit further up which apparently the locals had a falling out with the resident knight templars, they dragged them outside the castle and brutally killed them and the local legend is you can hear their screams on a dark night.

Too wet to ride today, too many jobs too. One of which was to swap the 18t cog (which was a bit stout) on the SS BigWig for a 19t. Bonus bingo = magic ratio without a tensioner!

Also, a chance to photograph both steel MTBs together…

Somewhat moist at Fod today.

FOD was pretty muddy last Saturday was great yesterday up on hills above Cheltenham dry/cold and windy Wilts was a wash out today.

Spent Saturday riding through tracks that were rivers.

The Parkamoor Bridleway was somewhere under this lot.

Another dry, but very windy, weekend in Suffolk.

Plenty of Snowdrops about, Spring isn’t too far away – hopefully..!

Was also out and about on Saturday, it was a bit colder than expected.

Snowdrops! We’ll gloss over that the rest of the ride was soaking, slimy, disgusting fun

Monday off as half term here, so it’s still kinda the weekend 😁
