WRPT. The That Rolled Round Quick Edition.

Was actually sunny at times this morning in Woburn , took the elder 2 kids out for a couple of hours

Final bit of bike fettling finished from our last trip so with a good forcast it was out and back on Cutgate from Langsett. It was bitterly cold up on the top and we didn’t see any other riders. Trails were dry and running fast.

Started off nice and sunny then turned to rain towards the end, definitely noticed the temperature drop.

First proper ride in just over a month, was nice to get out.

Apart from the usual slop on Blacka Moor we mostly dry.

What tyres for a greasy, leafy Pecket Well?

Was down that way on Sunday. Terrible on the tops (sideways rain) but fun in the woods. I couldn’t decide if the leaf litter covering the trail made it easier – “looks fine I’ll just plough on” or worse “I absolutely know there are holes on this section that I can’t see”

New Forest Gravelling (so actual #gravel, not mud!) this weekend, down to Keyhaven Marshes/Lymington for a Pasty:

It wasn’t dry around Cartmel, and I wouldn’t recommend the bridleway from Holker Bank to Howbarrow for about the next six months……………

Peak autumn’s been and gone. Say hello to winter.
