BeenWhat's the blue colour above the mountains? Not seen that before... (at least not this summer, it's been sh!t)
A lot of rain everywhere so not a bad idea.That’s his idea of a warm up.
Wow, nice!
I know that you use RaceFace cranks…the rest is covered with too much muck and filth.A couple of hours in the muck and filth earlier....enjoyed it though.
New rear mudguards didn't keep as much as I'd hoped off my back.

Marvelous post!Kielder.North West Northumberland .
A quick solo ride taking in the Deadwater Trail ( Into The Valley & Twist & Shout x2) and Skydive on the Lonesome Pine Trail ..where I managed to save the world from an alien invasion ..
Still can't get used to all trees gone through harvesting ..although Russell has done a great job ( ongoing) of repairing damage and re-profiling the trail ..completely changing the flow (in a good way) ..just wish the tree cover was still there .
Nice new picnic bench ..but too many midges to hang around for long ..

Crossing over the Valley and climbing up to Skyspace near to the observatory I'd heard about the possibility of being " visited " .. the info sheet had a rough description ..

Nice little pootle ..and back in time for the footie starting ..
We are not aloneMarvelous post!
Thanks God you saved us! Luckily, after this stressful fight, you managed to get back through the than even narrower gate hole. The only concern now is that he was the vanguard and there will be more to come. Better we join you going back there to defend our planet against the upcoming high caloric invasion. Never to be underestimated little bastards!
PS: Real nice looking place up there with the trail you mention and I can feel with you about the cut trees..
Had to check what this Skyspace thing is, appearing from the inside like a toilet, and found this with some explanations & pics: Skyspace Kielder
You must be built like Arnie to manage getting that bike up there. I like the roof suckers ? though.Royal National Park in Sydney. Muddy ride, but was awesome.

You can see in the photo below, I've placed the rear wheel mount low on the tailgate. So I lift the rear wheel on, then pivot the forks into the mount. I also remove the battery, so with the wheel off as well, it's about 5kg lighter. So probably only about 19kgs.You must be built like Arnie to manage getting that bike up there.

Perhaps it is easier because you are down under!You can see in the photo below, I've placed the rear wheel mount low on the tailgate. So I lift the rear wheel on, then pivot the forks into the mount.

It's surprisingly easy to get up.
