We did Bradwell Edge and Cavedale. Both dry and fast and we flew down; beautiful sunset, good banter, excellent riding and dusty bikes....
what a night.
Not yet. We're still having dinner. 😯
Cut Gate out and back last night. Mint. Cave Dale last Friday which was wet down the steep section as usual. Two dabs. Bugger. Great early season treats though.
Yup,out this afternoon,then met up with the Thursday night group.
Bone dry trails ,and cleaned every hill on one of our regular loops( a rare thing). Amazing sunset finish and big grins all round.
😀
just got in from a local spin up around cann woods, dust dust and more dust...perfect!
Did 8 miles/1600ft of climb this afternoon to ride Cracken Edge, great descent. Will be out tomorrow afternoon and saturday too 😀
Ohhh yeah. One hour on the turbos with three 10 minute 92% max HR sessions thrown in. Fantastic scenery, great company 🙄

Bone dry. Fast & dusty. Lovely
It was ok did a local trail there was 8 of use so a bit stop start waiting for people to catch up.
The ride home, at 20.00, was amazing in the sense that I was amazed that I didn't get killed! Fuel rage was causing a bunch of to55er drivers to swerve into the cycle lane in order to que jump into the petrol station. Bunch of 'kin nutters!
Nope. Missus is out so I'm stuck in the house on dad duty and got some fettling done. Did [url=
on Tuesday though. Roll on Saturday morning...
Fab evening out tonight on the North Downs for me riding into the dark. I didn't see another soul. Nothing except deer, badgers, bunnies and owls. Super fast and bone dry. Lovely.
Out last night - the temperature went from baselayer to Phantom in the 15 mins it took to down a pint (and 1/2 pint of pork scratchings 🙂
I had a lovely 15 miler on the way home in the sunshine through local trails that are running super sweet 🙂
Yep I got out with two mates for a day/nightride in E.Kernow.
It was a superb 20 miler with lots of bone dry trails & superb mild weather. It made a change to get home virtually clean & not have to wash the bike 😀
On the good news front my mate has found some sweet singletrack on the local Hill & the woods behind are drying out nicely - Woo Hoo!
Three of us out round Macc Forest tonight, great ride and found some new (to me) off piste bits.
Great fun - about 5 degrees colder than Tuesday evening though - noticed that as we left The Leathers Smithy 😀
35 mile ride home from work. 1st half was excellent, second half was into the wind and I bonked as I had not eaten since lunch.
did 2 hrs of fast herts singletrack in broxbourne woods. loving it 🙂
Just finished building my Heckler today - managed a 10 minute spin before school parents evening!!!! Heavenly
I rode the West Highland Way from Fort William to Kinlochleven with an overloaded trailer (as always when I take it). It was a bit... challenging, especially the final descent in the dark. The best part if the day though was the train journey up here. I've been up the road hundreds of times but today was the first time by rail. It was a real wow on such a beautiful day. Now I'm settled in a little shed with a bunk in it.
Long mynd today , fantastic. hopton wood tommorrow. Loving the weather this week 🙂

aamen
Yes. Now drunk. Over. Out )
I did a not so amazing 12 mile roadie ride to work.
It'll be sweeter going home.
😀
Four of us rode up to Nant-yr-arian, loop of the Summit trail and then added on Hippity Hop and a small downhill descent called White fridge. Stayed light long enough to ride the Summit Trail without lights 🙂 - happy days! And yes the trails were dry, smooth and dusty 🙂
Out on the roadie with my regular buddy, we shot around our "quickie" evening circuit of 15.5 miles at our best ever average of 17.5 mph, it has 775 ft of climbing too so that's a blindingly good ride for a couple of 55 year-olds! My buddy usually drops me on the hills but last night I didn't see much of him as he was on my wheel most of the time - I guess buying a CX bike for winter training has paid off.
I did. Superb. Found a trail in the middle of our local area that rivals Swinley Forest trails 🙂 fast as ****, swoopy, sweeping and awsomeness !!!!
Also found that my gym training and spinning classes are paying off in bounds.. Anyone who wonders 'does spinning really work' compare my hill pace of 12 months ago, to my pace of today. Either my mate has got a lot slower... or i've got a lot faster, take your pick 🙂
Stanmer Woods singletrack blast with BrightonMTB... brilliant 😀
