MTB Weekender North Wales - October 4-5-6th

Good luck to you all, I wish I was fit enough to join you, but it would have to be a hotel to sleep in this time of year, camping no way!!!!

Static caravan... central heating and double glazing. Too hot last night....

Mine has the same, OK at this time of year, but bitterly cold if there is much of a frost.

Even the flies clear off somewhere else.

Everybody survived. We drunk all the beer, ate all the cake, pedalled our way around the trails and dodged most of the rain. Not a bad result really. 4 tired old men now heading back home to their families

Clean now looking good

How is it?

Getting used to it. Climbs really well and stable on the fast downhill stuff. Dropper a worthwhile addition, let's you move around on the bike really well.

Just cleaning up. Bodged my hose brush with a bit of wire to stop the soap stick flying out, and bike given quick clean. 1st washer load done. Tired but had a great weekend.

Oh and I had to make tea, just cheese on toast.

 

[fossyant]

Oh and we covered about 300 miles for 30ish miles riding......

 

[fossyant]

And the weather gods looked after us. Very little rain during the rides.
