Sorry to hear you're not able to ride.
I've also been off the bike for a couple of months now, broken arm here.
Wasn't too frustrated at first but strangely when the weather went crap after such a brilliant summer I got a bit sad that I'd missed all the dry fun.
Turbo trainer has helped a lot and in the last week I've managed to get out on a road bike a couple of times.
Oh, you wanted photos...

Banks how would you say that post has worked out for you?
got there in the end, almost.
Too big to fail, that's you! 😀
😀
Think I recognise one of those "banks" 😉
Horrible being off the bike, sympathies. I´m just looking through photos because my season is drawing and I need cheering up. Here´s some I enjoyed:
South Pyrenees, my guide Dave making me look bad.
[img]
[/img]
Spanish Utah, sorry but that location is a secret!
[img]
[/img]
Basque Coast, my guide Dave on one of our first rides together.
[img]
[/img]
Basque Coast again.
[img]
[/img]
Spanish Pyrenees again, off there in a couple of weeks for autumn.

oooh lovely, thanks everyone,
banks - locations, you know that i know but other people don't know 🙂
Don't know about you Bunnyhop, but I'm restored to full moral after that lot. Amazing pictures guys ❗
Inspiring stuff people
@Doug Awesome day, thanks. Shame the seasons ended but surely time for sleep, or lack of it seeing little Doug is surely on it's way by now 😀
Oh and i'll be sending you a pretty huge email tomorrow, apologies.
@Bunnyhop, at the rate the council are going all the local dh's will be so flat you'll be able to ride them with one arm 🙁
I'm off the bike for a while too now!
oh no. what's happened?
subluxation capitate - whatever it means : / front wheel washed out on a pretty ordinary bit of trail.
Then i was chopping wood when the axe got stuck in a particular beast of log so went to lift it and smash through it, turns i just smashed up hand/wrist even further, idiot.
Spacehopper, is that an Orange five airbourne?

Hey Spacehopper, loving those ones of our here, that last one´s an angle I´ve never considered before but it looks ace! Also check out Dave concentrating 🙂
Banks, looking forward to a long mail! Will take me a little bit to reply as I´m guiding tomorrow and then wee Doug-ina is on her way any second now.

rogerthecat - That is indeed me, standing next to pook ( the tall guy, centre of photo, wearing grey) 🙂
All these photos make me want to ride, but not how I ride, how [i][b]you[/b][/i] ride 🙂
Some epic pics in here 8) We never think of taking pics when riding. Really must make more of an effort.
