Just got back.. Left the house at 10am. On the South Downs at 10.15am, snow blizzare at 10.30am... blatted around until 12.30.. washed bike.. Starving now and off to demolish some lunch at a Chineese Restaurant....
Did a loop in the Elan Valley this morning. Windy on the hill tops and I had aching wrists and back due to first ride with riser bars. It was my second MTB ride in over 12 months and I now realise what I have missed. more regular riding is on the agenda now.
Just a quick 22 miler on the single speed in frequent blizzard like conditions. The snow turned to slush and the slush turned the ground to sludge as the sun warmed things up a degree or two. I returned looking like the mud man from some scifi/horror movie.
Glad I went out though, shoulda been out yesterday but two mates let me down for various reasons. Still, can't be helped sometimes.
