Pic of the Day

Different views; nice mix of forest roads and single track around May Hill.

I'm now at Italian side of the Alps. Kronplaz bike park.
They have a very interesting trail. 8.2 km long, steep in places and more than 1300m vertical. Another line which was open 4.9 km berm trail. Pretty boring, but side trails for example jump line saved from boredom.
After the ride, relaxing at the pool.

Been out already today and came home to this. Not a drink last night either so I won't be feeling guilty tonight when I leave a dent in this . I googled the picture on card Harry's rocks I sailed past them on my last trip when I retired two years ago 😢 .

This weekend was meant to be me full-on doing paperwork ..but but but ..when the weather is this good ( and is meant to change next week ) ..I just thought fk it ..gotta get out there !😁.
Early start to do a Bolts Law there and back as far as the Rookhope Road ..then packed the bike into the car and headed for a Carriers Way loop out of Blanchland ..met quite a few fellow mtb'ers which wasn't really a surprise with the conditions this good .

This is where things went a bit tits up ..one second the trail was dry & dusty but firm ..the next it was Northumberland's version of the Sahara Desert ...I tried to save it but the front end just washed out ..

I'm very jealous of all of these daddy's day cards & presents ..I think my son & daughter have forgotten I've spawned them ..and worse the missus hasn't reminded them !😁

Only one of my 3 lads remembers everything or his girlfriend does. But probably just as well 3 bottles would be greedy.
 
Continuing our theme of boring for the day ... the slow side of MTB .... trail tidying ...

This one was getting to the point where you just got ripped up by the gorse, it's not perfect, but at least you can get down it.

The dog was kind enough to go ahead and try to flatten the bracken on the completely lost trail ..

Needs another pass, but at least you can see there was a trail once ..
