You don't need to be an 'investor' to invest in Singletrack: 6 days left: 95% of target - Find out more
Looking out of the window at the constant pissing rain 😥
Was there 2 weeks ago for the first time and thought it was ace. Pretty physical trails, love the red stuff which I thought was tougher than the black route. Didn't get out today, best laid plans and all. Will be planning on something over the weekend though.
Just back from a couple of days on the Bluestone Preselis(born there on the hills, and ride or walk a few times a year) getting hammered by big winds. Beautiful and empty.

Confined to barracks due to general anaesthetic on Wednesday. I'm going stir crazy.
mmm, warmth
I'm fed up my legs looking like that and the grinding paste on everything....
Well today's 'ride' was wet by choice, with LD of this parish and mini_LD. Where you all been?

@TANG! Bluestone Preselis! Tell me more - I'm in H'West and have pretty much given up hope of decent local trails!

Today to quick as a quick 2 hr 30 min blast round rivvy on the SS I was time limited and rushing - must take mpre pics when i ride
Upper Swaledale. The climb from Muker up onto Kisdon is a biyatch of the highest order! Goes from steep hardpacked track to even steeper wet grass.

@maxtorque - it's near Staunton. Kind of hard to explain. Mail in profile if you want directions...
Only one rubbish pic, but managed to get out twice. Once this morning on the CX and for a couple of hours messing around on Saturday. Weather was miserable Saturday but I spent most of it at the old BMX-track. Forgotten how exhausting it can be to get around it.

Where's that wildc4rd. Looks amazing.
First ride of 2015 - first ride in around 6 months actually. Just a little solo, local loop. Couldn't have picked a better day!

Glen Einich for me,
I took the high path as the views up the glen are worth the punishing climb
Made it, the journey back down the glen with the usual tailwind was a hoot. I filled my water bottle from the Loch and i'm now sat with a whisky and a wee dash of Loch Einich 😀
It was grim round Buttermere on Friday, ruined my map in the constant drizzly horribleness.

I forgot the camera this evening - and was frankly enjoying the ride too much to stop. Yay for sunny evenings around the Allan Water. 8)

Looks like Lustleigh Cleave / East Dartmoor. I bet the old Manaton road is, er, ar*e breaking going down it fast on a hardtail!

Wife and The Boy in the Karangahake Gorge. Took bikes on the train, then a 2km pootle along the rail trail to a waterfall - paddling, scrambling about on the rocks - pootle back to the station for lunch, train ride home. Top day out 😀
My eldest, away on a week long tri-service brass band camp (how middle class? 🙄 ) just texted me this morning to say I he hopes I enjoy being back at work - cheeky lad!
Anyhow, here is him on Friday, showing his dad how to ride...

These pics are making me so jealous. Haven't been out for a "proper" ride at all this year 🙁
Mini Teadrinker MKII has been keeping me busy. Hoping to get out soon. These pics help though. Some lovely ones out there. The UK is a truly beautiful place when you get out into the Countryside.
