Pic of the Day

Yesterday's ride that went through 5 Yorkshire dales. Cracking weather but cold out of the sun.

Must have finished on about the same ..well into the last power bar on the purion display ..but the last couple of miles on tarmac in turbo were an absolute treat on tired legs 😁
I don't seem to get tired legs on my power bike but I certainly get sore arms pulling the thing around over logs etc, boulders. It's bloody heavy.
Started to ride over bigger stuff now and it's really taking the punch outta my pecks
 
This was an excellent ride out in late Autumn sunshine with little or no wind. A couple of pics to go with the @The Hodge pics.
Our first trial of Sainsbury’s/ Home Bargains winter wet weather gear passed with flying colours through a real boggy section on this route (nearly always up to the knees even in the summer). Once the bog crossing was out of the way the protective bags were used to tidy the shooters hut after our sarnies.
A great day out 😂😂

Ignore what Wayne was saying about the bog of doom ..still a party animal and we'd heard that there was a 70's disco in the shooting cabin ..the party was over by the time we got there though with nary a drop of red to be wrung out of a bottle ..

Turn the assistance off and see how you get on !
 
Mouth of the Spey from both sides . Lovely day but very cold but I have a cold so probably feeling just me feeling leepit. Can anyone Botanists identify the plant growing through the whins. A woman was picking them and said they were Sloe Berries but they are not . Could they be Blackthorn I picked some but still unsure what they are. There was no foliage on them when I picked them late September. All info I find on identify them have foliage on them

Gorse Bushes the yellow flower will smell of coconut like surf wax 😂
 
Struggled uphill to do a nice quick downhill before the rain came in again, from The Trundle to West Dean (UK, West Sussex). Just got going then went around a corner and ... oops ... stopped a bit quick!

Several trees still with foliage (because haven't had a frost yet) with waterlogged roots, blown down by recent gales. No way round these, had to lift my Rail over them. Fook :-(

This is looking back.

Edit: Replaced Hi-Res with Lo-Res pic.
