Last night's mad dash! Not been out for over a week.

Early dart from work, straight to Rivington Upper Barn. Straight up to the Pigeon Tower, continue up to the Pike. Winter Hill in background...

Then it was down the rough stuff and up Winter Hill. (View back to the Pike)

Took one look at the weather on the north side (raining heavily) so came straight back down the way I went up and made it back to the car as it got dark and before the rain.

10 miles, 1360ft of climbing, 630kCals...

It was good to be out! Weather has been appalling here over the last week.

 

[Kilham5]

lovely afternoon, from my front door.
30km, 1000m climbing, didn’t see a soul.

Steep, off camber, slippery as chuff, and a slick rear tyre
Recipe for great fun

[Slymobi]

Bit late to the party but I found a Shroom too

 

[InRustWeTrust]

Nice and cold autumm ride , and yes i know that I have the plastic cover left

 

[RustyMTB]

Burnt around the woods for a bit & it's definitely getting chilly out there.

And a better angle for fans of the classic Hymac 580D. manufactured in Rhymney between 1980 - 1986 with approximately 900 made & I definitely haven't just googled that.

This is on the Röstigraben, the imaginary line in Switzerland between French and German speaking areas. From Rougemont to Abländschen, high up on the mountain I found this fridge with ice-cream and it would have been total madness not to have some. Payment via the Swiss payment system, just scan a QR code and agree payment. Very Swiss.

Ride out around the trials in Amber Valley, the first picture is the rock-a-bye tree from the nursery rhym.

Great ride out with my two ebike buddies today..EMF & Jaco ( Bolts Law route ..with a bit of Slaley Forest thrown in ) ..that is until Jaco had a bit of an accident ( see second pic ) ..yep a tree fell on top of him and he is 6 ft in the ground with just his head showing ..being a true gentleman he insisted that we finish the ride ..go home for our evening meal ..and if we have time call back later to dig him out ..otherwise tomorrow morning will do .
We have given the GPS co-ordinates to his missus and I think she is heading that way later to be with him until we can be arsed to go back ..its supposed to be a mild night so it should be quite romantic ..
The first pic is of EMF & Jaco on the moors shortly after leaving Edmundbyers

This is when disaster struck and I captured the moment shortly before the tree fell on his head...

EMF...what time should we head over in the morning ?
( sorry poor choice of word ..no pun intended)

Pleased the bike appears to be fire proof
The climate is all to cock, the weather in Northumberland UK
is quite benign.

 

[Tonybro]

If Northumbria was benign, Lancashire decided to steal the show. Not too wet, but blowy, managed to dodge (most of) the rain.

I took the Green Hornet out as it was sh!tty (meteorological term).

Just to prove I am not talking male scrotal appendages...

I call that one, "Ugly Kid Joe"!

Then in keeping with our Funghi theme here on EMTB...

Tis the season for it...

Oh, and the new Bike Carrier arrived about a week ago - used it today...

Very cool UKJoe!
Did you see what I have done there?

Is your carrier on the back of your shooting-brake van, or do you have a tow-bar carrier?

 

[CBSTD]

A few from today the Plan was to do two peaks but got distracted oh well need to go back and do it properly

 

[GMLS]

Almost a perfect colour match to the gold.Great day out in the Surrey Hills.

 

[IndigoUnicorn]

Played trail angel to a bunch of riders coming through the desert on the The Dangerbird 250 this weekend. Only saw the first few, fastest riders today. They started at 9 yesterday morning and I was at about mile 200.

But, damn, what is it with bikepackers all being so damned tall?

This guy was fastest by far. 5.5 hours ahead of the next fastest riders!!
