...Enjoying the october sun around Patching and Highdown Hill

Great pictures and a lovely bike

Looks like a good ride, I got in a 2 hour session at Whiteways in the late afternoon, practaly had the trails to myself.

Went out on one of those spur of the moment rides .. and ended up here

Not realy sure if picking one of the hottest day of the year was such a good idea though !!

Despite a rather nasty cold I went for a wander along the coast to LittleHampton.

It was a little busy.

I went home again. sneezing.

Still, nice weather and all that...

Any reason why we can't we just re-use this thread as a rolling list of random bike rides we have done? (Non-Retrobike planned ones for example).

I don't see why not!

Good idea to me !

Got 2 hours on the road bike today, nice to get out for a spin, and still in shorts !!

I went out for an extended version of my quick Patching loop yesterday, just took a couple of photos as it was wet and muddy, both pics from close to Monarchs Way north of Patching. Unfortunately I didn't have an onboard camera to capture the bloody great stag that charged across the trail about 10m in front of me at one point!!!!!

wouldn't mind sneaking out on a ride with you Ross, if you ever manage to find the time of a weekend and didn't mind a tag-a-long, I'd love to know more of my local trails

I don't mind tag a longs Max, it's the 5 minute warning that I get to find out I can go for a ride that's the problem!!!!

Definitely need to meet up soon and as Rosstheboss Jr is now a little older and no one wants to go out in the pissy november weather, it should get a little easier!!!

And so it happened that on the 12th of November 2011 Rosstheboss actually went for a ride with some other people from Retrobike, namely Bobcatmax and The Green Rabbit....

And what fun it was too, if a little muddy!!! Nice pint as well!

Sorry to turf you guys away at the end, it looked like the nippers had had an earbashing and the car was about to unload an enormous portion of grump, which wasn't far from the truth.... bloody kids!

Less mud and more people next time eh?

Good to get out and ride with you at last Ross

No comedy puncture/faff picture? I was expecting at least one, hehe.

No worries about the turfing out, it was nigh on the the exact time for me to push off anyway..Chichester had just about sold out of everything and had kicked my missus out

definitely less mud
