Pic of the Day

Let’s see how sharp my trail spotting skills are today …

That was taken after the short climb (before the awkward rocks & roots and series of drops) just after the tight hairpin bend as you enter Worry Gill?

Spot on

You need to get out more! You need to find other places to ride more, Tubs!

I only need to ride a trail once and I’ll pretty much remember all the features, rocks, roots, berms, surrounding trees, flora, fauna & fungi

But yes I have more wear and tear on my tyres from Dalby than anywhere else!

Shouldn't fall off as often then!

Mind you, I'm not one to talk! I think I know the taste of Gisburn better than most!

A sniper root took me out at Yearsley Woods on Saturday. Because I’m so protective of my messed up wrist, my instinct was to cross my arms and bring them close to my body as I fell, rather than land hands outstretched. My instinct worked, my hands & wrists were thoroughly protected as I face planted into the loam

Women pay fortunes for those kind of treatments ..has it made much of an improvement ?

Did you take bites out of those amanita muscaria? Might be a different kind of trip..........

 

[The Hodge]

Happy or dead ?

No but I was tempted to lick them.

Half way up the Legburner at Nant Yr Arian (6 miles east of Aberystwyth). 2.2 miles of (I reckon) an average 1 in 7. Grandson on his Orange Five RS, propping up my Merida e-One Sixty. He stopped for a breather now and then but never pushed.

 

[Jackware]

Managed to stay dry on Long Mynd today

One day he'll go tubeless

And in keeping with HM's new theme

Nice autumn day in Villars-sur-Ollon, my organisation is based there so this is pretty much a day in the office

Amazing not an itty bit of the white stuff, even on the peaks in the middle of October. Not jealous really.

The bike is nice, but what we REALLY want to see I the engine that powered the pump jack.

it’s a bit early for snow to accumulate other than on high northern aspects

My weekly Swiss fix ahhhhhhh

 

[SwissMountainLeader]

Under the Miroir d'Argentine on the way to the Pas de Cheville a high col between the Vaud and Valais. Autumn is full swing although the weather will alter in the next days. It’s near Villars the ski station.

 

[Flatliner]

Finally had some time after work to go for a ride. In comparison to my Swiss colleagues here, seems I live in the lowlands.

Time to mount the lamps for the way home after dark.

Yesterday in the Glasshouse Mts, just north of Brisbane, Australia
