Balsamroot everywhere ! Finally Spring... maybe... snowing at higher altitudes again ! 
Lovely colour that.
It was on tv a lot in the 60s if I remember. Lightness probably a factor but flat bars definitely more control. Mean looking dude in that picture. I had a helmet like that in 80s crazy when I think about it. Don't remember much choice back then.Congratulations, enjoy!
Talked lately with the owner of a small but fine bike shop about the revival of cross-country race bikes. I just can not understand why I would use such a bike on non-asphalt roads when having a fully resp. why run such tyres when riding on a race bike.
Big gun you'll be needing and a motorcycle if that comes after you

Went for a quick run down some of the local downhill trails today. Found a step down double with a totally blind takeoff. Jump carries about 10-12 feet distance with about 3 or 4 feet of drop. Super fun
I'd be coming down that on my arse
Final ride ( for me ) prior to our N.W.Scottish Highland trip next week..joined by @The EMF ( who is also on the trip ) on a ride in The Cheviot Hills out of Alwinton ..
The first off -road climb featuring Wayne ..which are the only pics I took all day ..
For the amount of rain we've had recently the hills were remarkably dry ..and the temperature warm ..
Things are looking up

Out in the Cheviots today with @ The Hodge, first time this year I think….it was remarkably dry considering all the rain we’ve had but there were still boggy bits to catch you out.
A few pics of Neil and if you expand the last pic you clearly see the granite block path that runs parallel with the border ridge fence on the English side.
Great no jacket ride in my favourite place to be, stunning vistas ……….oh not to forget a pint of the black stuff in the Rose and Thistle afterwards, cheers Neil.

Pensioners outing up Ben Rinnes plus tea and sandwiches. 13 miles 2 hrs moving time , total time 6 hrs . Trek bike in picture is 7 years old and has had absolutely no TLC and no maintenance . Only money spent was £220 last year on new drive train and brake pads , never missed a beat . Sore knee i still get catched out with Bear trap pedals and that was pushing the bike.
No I don't think Simon would agree . Seat torn forks corroded probably last him another 5 years amazing .

Bringing her home!
Or it gets to the stage where its in such a state that something fails and causes him an injury
A few snaps from my commute home from work. I live approx 14km from work and try to ride the Haibike a couple of days a week. In the morning, I use paved roads plus a km or so of gravel raod, but in the evening I try to find some more interesting routes. This one is approx 18km and follows the river.
Did collar bone and ribs a couple of years ago I seem to remember. Not in to serious stuff but you don't have to be to fall off. I should have included a pic of his car it's in same condition.Or it gets to the stage where its in such a state that something fails and causes him an injury
Where did I leave my bike?

I remember the one in Amsterdam near the train station hundreds of them . I always wondered if it was just a tourist thing .
Forgot to say on my earlier reply ..but its really good to see a nice knee hair parting.
I see that you favour combing yours to the right ..very risque

Working out of town for the week so I got to ride in some new areas with a workmate that lives in that area. Good times, great riding and exploring.
