Pic of the Day

[El Grifo]

You lucky bleeder!
It's done nothing but rain here for weeks. I can't even walk on my lawn without it squelching. Even the pond has overflowed!

Harder you work, the luckier you get

I haven't been short of hard work, nor luck for that matter (I too can post plenty of exotic pics taken abroad), I just happen to live in the UK, which is proper wet right now.

lived in Los Cristanos for about 3 years and used to ride my moped (ebikes these days would have more power) around the hills and out past 10 Bells towards the airport on Tenerife, is that where you are/this pic is?

Did you still have strava on in the car, just wondering how steep a hill you have to have to hit 76.4kph

Your max speed is insane!

Max speed 47 mph, bet pedalling up that hill is a bit slower!

Thats got to be a Garmin/strava glitch, if you look at the graph it barely breaks 50 KPH

Yes and when it does break 50 Km/h it’s on a climb

 

[RustyMTB]

I routinely get over 45mph recorded on Strava. I'd always assumed it was my Olympic standard fitness.

You wanna see the legs on me mind.... I would have gone up there faster with more traction, Wheel spinning most the way up there...

Only jokin !

 

[Christurbo]

This is a good point though. Some KOMs here have been drastically quicker to the main pack due to obvious glitches in the tracking device. Not that we take this seriously!

Ride round local lanes, amazing what you discover locally - guess what the first is?

A quick ride this morning after the rains and snow. I expected more snow but the creeks were flowing and the roots were slick.

Had to give myself a bit of a motivational speech this morning to get out of the door ..but the missus had already left and nobody else around to call the men in the white coats for a ride to the loony farm ..so eventually made it ..
It's been a good while since I started a ride from the door and as usual by the time I got back I chided myself for not doing so more often ...
I can get to the first bridleway within 5 mins of leaving the house ( Bellingham, Northumberland )
which would take me over a moorland stretch and into the Pundershaw section of Kielder Forest ..but sacrificed this for 2.5 miles of tarmac to get there a bit quicker ..

A great mix of b/ way , forest tracks & moorland for my first snowy/ ice ride of the winter ..loved it

At first I thought; “Those are some of the coolest black & white photos I’ve seen”.

But then I realized you added some colour with photoshop. well done.

It's just a shame he couldn't Photoshop that scabby bike out of the pictures
