Great pics Dave and looks like the usual top day in the FOD :cool:

Its good to see Del back on the bike , look like he enjoyed the Mud :LOL:

Also Mike / Leo your Cinelli looks great and very shiny, will have to get them to meet soon !
 
Guys fab day out yesterday. Glad to be back.. :D

Indeed I would say the company was as good as the trails ...which if you know the FOD secret trails is high praise indeed.

Sorry I turned up on the on-one, but I needed something that would stop in the wet as it was my first ride back after various setbacks. Won't happen again :oops: ..honest, as the old bikes are primed and ready.

And Dave..great photos ! Glad you enjoyed the deluxe detour :LOL:
 
.

Fabulous dayout yesterday, and no aches or pains today so all good :D
Great route
Nice folks
Good weather apart from the lunchtime monsoon :D
I felt better and rode faster generally than last time out which is pleasing on a personal level :cool:

And it is officially quicker to get back to mine using the M4 from Chepstow than it is to use the A465 :D
