...did everyone get our riding between the showers? A bit slippy in places and quite a lot more slippy in a few more in the FOD today. Still cracked out a 70km ride with 1200m of climbing. And we had beer as well. That's a proper way to spend a monday.

Here's my mate Cez making light of the conditions:

Let's get a few pics up and I can pretend it's not work tomorrow 😉

Really fun 20 miles on exmoor including a wrong turn leading to a nice rocky descent and a riverside cheeky tech fest

Couple of strava top tens and mostly sunshine. Top day out on the bandit!

Those photos look like Spring 🙂 I've chucked Radio Control gliders off the Bwlch but never thought of riding up there.

Gorse Lane as it passes Hanging Hill, on the return leg of my local loop which included a very full Hicks Lodge.

Posting a picture of an Arnold Clark dealership would be rubbish.
Posting a pic of the walk alongside Loch Lomond would be ace. Shame I forgot the camera....

Spent the day at CYB, sadly the camera's battery was dead. Otherwise I'd have taken a pic of the STW Towers bus conspicuously parked in the VIP car park away from all the 'commoners' 😕

11.5hrs into a not quite Cairngorms Loop loop on Saturday. Another 7hrs before I finished up a nice 219km singlespeed ride with no sleep stops.

It started snowing properly about 30mins after this shot.

A quick 24 mile loop out from home and back this evening, wasn't expecting to get out which made the ride that bit more enjoyable.

Great effort GregMay - is that pic the climb up Culardoch? Bet your cadence was fairly low single speeding up there 🙂

Between the storm fronts and in the middle of a bit work problem getting out on the bike seemed the best idea. Just about made it back before the rain came.

Well that's cheered up my Tuesday morning. Wasn't expecting to see snow in any of the pics! The sunset ones are lovely. Absolutely howling it down here, not a bad day to be inside.

Went out with a friend for a steady ride - he's been off the bike for a while with illness - managed to snap a spoke in my rear wheel, so dropped into Sherwood Pines Cycles to pick up a replacement and ended up borrowing this for a quick ride

It's too small for me, the brakes were terrible and it had far too much pressure in the tyres, but oh my god how much fun can a bike be!
