The ride in today was fine, most of the drivers on the roads were far more considerate than usual, I noticed quite a few hanging back especially at the corners. On the way home it was very different, head to toe for most of the way, cars all over the road , no chance to filter.

Ride It Like You Stole It!
Location

Took the long route home..... got chucked out the building at 11, so rode 10.5 miles back - 95% off road.....(17.5 total for the day - 3 hours in the saddle....)

This is my off road commute...it's a wonder why I stick to the roads normally.....

This is going home.....

Nice isn't it.....

Knackered now after 3 hours on the bike, and two hours clearing our road......(not that I'll be using the car).

Only one off - just got off the trail, climbing a snow covered cobbled hill......you can guess..... front wheel went.....down I went.. Laughing though....

That's a 17 year old MTB that is pre suspension.....(i.e. not invented) decked out in Deore XT and LX with a Tange Cro-mo frame.....all period components.... that's been up Snowdon, smashed into a few times by cars...it's ace..........

Looks BSO, but it kicks ass ..... proper old Skool............ it's seriously good, at XC and climbs, suffers on downhill, but that's me who won't push it....

Grrrrr :biggrin::biggrin::biggrin::biggrin::biggrin::biggrin::biggrin:
