ok These are from Wednesday when we had some sun. For those that are not racing this weekend, did anyone venture out?

Climbed Ben Vrackie with Mctrail Rider and Ben Cathro. Top section was super steep and rocky with the lower sections fast and loose. Good day had by all.

GoPro effect in full. This was rocky, rough and steep. The @manitoumtb mattoc was well composed down this part of the trail. #goproeffect #mtb #mtbscotland #benvrackie #mountainbiking #mountainbiker #enduro #transitionpatrol #manitouforks #canecreek #michelinenduro #mtbmincer #mtbbaldy #suninscotland #instabike #downhill

@mctrail_rider hammering the @deviatecycles guide and @ben_cathro having line choice issues on his new @santacruzbicycles_uk mega tower. I was only slightly slower on “my” new @transitionbikes mk1 patrol. #mtb #mtbscotland #benvrackie #enduromtb #rawvideo #awesomeday #transitionpatrol #santacruzmegatower #deviateguide #corbettbagging #actualmountainbiking

90km of Ridgeway today, this was me taking selfies of the boys trying to catch me on the hill

At the top by Avebury

From stunning mountainous vistas and lairy lace lever tricks to……some mowed grass in Kent.

Did Cutgate yesterday with my eldest daughter from the Langsett end. Finished off the new build with stealth fork decals and removing the rim decals as they didn’t match. Nice surprise was the rims has stealth decals in the carbon underneath. Today been out for an eight hour walk in the Peak.

Rode this machine round FoD. RIP wallet!!!

Definitely needs a 175mm dropper though, at least.

Managed about 15 mile flat return trip to LiverBuildings from my house. Super happy as first time I’ve been able to ride in about 6 weeks due to trapped nerve nonsense.

Took the Dune out for it’s first MTB ride, surprisingly flattering for a rigid MTB. I’ll need to look into a smaller chainring/larger cassette though.

Ah, dry trails! Nr Marlborough.

Long weekend for me so
Friday out on the road bike
Saturday we went to Rivi,I rarely go there these days as I’m mostly out on the road bike.
I got a shock at how much renovation work is going on there

I’m still crap at doing wheelies…

I’m going for a blast on my Triumph motorcycle now,then a evening spin on the road bike.

No photos but I did a 22 mile Wellness MTB ride this morning around Barnsley, was good fun.

Only a short road bike ride from the house for us as we were working on our van.

When it comes to the steeps, the camera always flattens things, but this is a genuinely naggery bit of trail complete with…….

I went and checked out the YT Rolling Circus demo weekend at FoD and played around on a Capra, it was fun!

A bit of rain yesterday followed by some sun meant that the trails had all gone green today.

Just a bomb round the lake on the road bike due to DIY. I hate DIY.

Fun day having a little ride then marshalling stage 4 of poc Innerleithan Enduro…
