We picked up a fat bike and took it down to the beach by Inverness. Not much of a beach, from a fella accustomed to the Dunnet Sands, but nevertheless a good place to try out a fat tyre. Will get it down to the Findhorn river bed over the weekend and try it out properly!

Great fun!

Today-Thursday-Still on hold here, waiting for my body to absorb excess fluid swelling my leg-it is getting better and I hope to get back out very son-can't wait! Gary fisher came over today and we fiddled with the Bluebird Downhill MTB. It has lots of handmade pieces on it, and even an oversize thru axle from 20 years ago...Highlandsflyer-Fat bikes and sand and snow go together... :)

Today-Saturday-Alright, back in the saddle again. We climbed up to the West of town today, a coolish 62 F. and sunny out. Feels really great to be back on two wheels again after 12 days off... :)

Re:

Today-Thursday-It's getting warmer-80 F.-I rode one of my typical climbs, up Iron Springs road to the Scout Camp. Someone has added a ton of gravel to fill in potholes, which is good. However, it makes the climb much harder with the squishy surface- oh well, it will pack down and get easier, and it makes me work harder in the meantime... :)
