Here is Kev U showing such speed that he’s just a blur (must get a decent digital camera) on one of the many sections of singletrack we covered. John showed us a couple more “new” sections which I have committed to memory. A very enjoyable ride despite the heavy rain halfway round and the mud which was fairly deep in places.
7 out in total – Kev & El fit from their alpine trip, Kev C so confident on the singletrack that he doesn’t even fall off these days, Andy B fit from all his road riding and has found a way round the hosepipe ban for cleaning your bike – babywipes (don’t let the wife know though), Gareth who we thought we had lost to the road – and probably have now that he got his lovely white Trek really muddy, new member John from Sandiway and me who probably had the best crash – ricocheting off a fence into the side of John who I thought I could pass, but didn’t.
Hope to see some of you for the Gisburn Forest ride Sat 21 August – it’ll be a good warm-up for the TLI race on Sunday.
