Great ride
Just got in after a ~three hour ride ... into the wind for two hours,
really struggling at some points, then almost coasted back at three times the speed! Awesome fun .. lovely and warm, bright, dry and lots of traffic to pass on the way back .. I was moving quite a bit faster than it was through and out of town!! Also just got the Landrover through MOT so be out in that this weekend, green-laning and riding some moors in Derbyshire methinks .. -- Paul - xxx |

I set off at 0800 to go for a haircut 3 miles away, he opens at 0900, but I sat outside from 0820 to get first dibs. Someone else strolled up at 0830, the barber cycled in at 0845 and I was finished and out by 0915 - job done. On the home, I felt some chest pain and thought I was having a heart attack, so I stopped and checked the pulse which was fine. I then realised the pressure on my chest was due to carrying a heavy U lock in my rear jacket pocket which I don't normally do! -- Simon Mason -- |

Had two lovely rides around my folks place, forgotten how good getting on proper hills is. remarkably dry hill fires may mark this year. lot of the trails are normally more of a mountain stream, rather than being dry rock gardens.
