NWA ride: Goyt Valley & Buxton ~ 02/09/12 - AFTERMATH p2

Awesome burger assemblage! If the burger itself was a little greasy and scab like...

Great ride this one, despite the complete no-show of my legs/downhilling restraint :oops: Cheers all for waiting for me, there's lesson for the newbies & nervous here - never felt like I was annoying the group as they had a tab and a natter waiting for me at the tops, t'is the friendly Retro way ;)

The other lesson is wide bars on rigid old bikes do not make them competent downhillers - they just make them feel that way. Briefly. Before it rapidly gets far too hectic!

And another hats off to Paul too, I wouldn't fancy adding a trip over Cat & Fiddle to the end of the day, fair play :shock:


60psi next ride, which should ward off the now de rigour over-enthusiasm induced pinch flat. Although what it'll do to 20 year old amber-walls I'm not so sure...

See you at the Peaks :cool:
