Pic of the Day

[The Hodge]

After brilliant sunshine yesterday ..todays ride with @The EMF up at Kielder couldn't have been more of a contrast ..Windy & Wild just about sums it up with 40mph gusts forecast ..and it certainly felt that way at the top of Deadwater Fell..but fairly sheltered in the forest itself ..
A few pics ( EMF)

Another crackin ride out ..despite the conditions ..

 

[Binhill1]

Finally warming up, it was a cold but decent 62F. Found a fun new trail.

Also, can the pic of the day include video?

I dream of trails like that

 

[The EMF]

Deadwater Fell today at 1900ft the wind was howling and we (@The Hodge and myself )were in the clouds with gusts of 40 mph. Visibility poor which made the black graded decent to the head of the trail known as Into the Valley very tasty.
The Radar station barely visible from 25 yards and my buddy looking like an apparition of some long lost grizzly old Mtber doomed to ride the misty hills for eternity. A great ride out with the Blue graded Osprey Trail fast and flowing is brilliant to ride and shouldn’t be overlooked.
Nice pint of the black stuff to finish the day……..,loverly jubbly

Perhaps I should take a different trail.

Also, sad that our HOA doesn't know the difference between venomous and poisonous.

Nor the difference between insects and arachnids.

Should add the local astronomy buff who was in the car park in the first picture, waiting patiently to see the once in a generation green comet was very polite considering six herberts with Exposure Maxx D's blazing away stopped in his spot for a breather, ruining his night vision for a bit.

You’ll be fine they said.

Once the sliding starts…soft landing though.

Our version of StoneHenge…with snow. Got quite emotional after this pic. Spectacular.


Across the valley.


I went right.

 

[SwampNut]

"Fine" is never a word I would use if snow is involved. "Rescue helicopter" and "moving van" come to mind.

I'm currently waiting for it to get to 70 before riding today.

Did you manage to get home without the mrs noticing ?

 

[Tonybro]

We'd hardly get out waiting for that temperature - even in summer!

Tell me about it . Or maybe it's his 70th birthday he's waiting for.
