Built up a new bike by 17:02 so just had time for a dusk spin to let it settle in. Top drawer.

Still warm and dry out on the local trails

Swinley fun. Ace ride

Ride no.2 of the weekend and for the new build. Trying some new lines.

Looked at the forecast, and decided that my Sunday ride had better happen on a Saturday this weekend...

An aborted ride at Dunkeld here - temporary rear wheel has a reluctance to play nicely with the cassette. ☹️

Decided that fripperies like discs and suspension weren't needed. I was wrong.

That root always gives me the fear, Rich. 🙂

Walna Scar looked a bit different on Tuesday.

One of those "late afternoon in early spring" rides. The light is great when you are in it, but I've never found a way to capture it on the phone (especially when the more interesting view is into the low sun).
