Couldn't see one for this weekend

Took a trip up Dumyat near bridge of Allan. about 1200ft of climb that took me about 60mins. The decent took 10mins and that included the time talking to a couple of other riders and a dog owner I nearly ran over opps. It didn't start out well for me as I forgot my tool bottle then I forgot my helmet and when I arrived at the church car park I realised I had forgotten my chesty mount so no gimbal gopro footage for my youtube channel (mtb Scotland 😉 ) Was an brilliant day to climb up before my trip to wales next week.

No pics at the moment, t'internet is clearly having Brexit issues...

A day of two halves. This morning a potter around easy blues between Les Gets and Morzine under bluebird skies and quiet trails with middle_oab.
An afternoon chasing eldest_oab around challenging reds through clouds of dust, finishing with him (not I) clearing some doubles he was eying up all week.
We then finished the day with a swim in the stream fed swimming lake here.

Just a gentle bimble over the Chase this morning. Off piste trails were overgrown to the point of being unrideable in places so I sacked it off a lolloped round the blue on my own. Had a surprisingly good time.

First proper ride in ages after a raging chest infection. Went exploring in the lakes and did a descent I've had my eye on for yonks. It was a bloody corker!

Burnt to a crisp too.
