Depends where you get your idea of it being heavily populated from really. Some of it is. Lots of it really isn't.
London is heavily with a population of over 7 million residents in an area of just 600 square miles
But head North to my country (Scotland) and it has a population of just 5 million but our land spans 30000 square miles. and 3.5 million of those live in the central belt (the area around and between Glasgow and Edinburgh (our two largest cities. Just 45 miles apart). meaning on the whole Scotland is actually quite sparcely populated

To give you an American perspective New York city has around 7 million population in an area spanning just 300 square miles

London is more like 10 million plus

Google says 9.5m
You get my point though, eh?

Yes mate no where near 7 & your the 1st person who will argue google is wrong but I get your point

 

[Gary]

TBF I said

with a population of over 7 million

Which even a a barely literate trumpet like yourself has to agree 9.5m is.

...how far over the bars did you land after crashing into that tree..?

The Coast line Trail (Tunnel Mtn in Banff National Park, AB, Canada) looking out toward the Fairholm Range

Steep drop offs closer to the edge of this section aptly named 'The Spine'.

This grouse took a special interest in my bike prior to our departure.

Luckily no otb’s this weekend, managed to stay rubber side up

Now that the brief Northumberland summer is almost over I took a quick blast around my local bridle ways.
Nothing too technical but good to be out anyway. Surprised to see so much damage after storm Arwin, the trails have been cleared but lost their rooted natural characteristics, but they are passable now

The rather dull drab pics of the buildings below are all that’s left of opencast mining operations between 1960’s to 2000’s. They were the service sheds for the huge plant that was used to extract and move the coal.

There used to be a huge bucket in front of the building that belonged to the mighty Big Geordie walking dragline earth mover- 2800 tonnes, 280ft boom with the bucket capacity 50 cubic metres……..to give some sort of scale,

Sadly the bucket has been cut up for scrap a couple of years ago.

rubber side up

I think its actually a motorbiking term and maybe not an mtb term, meaning the right way up, wheels on the ground!

I think its actually a motorbiking term and maybe not an mtb term, meaning the right way up, wheels on the ground!

The term is “keep the rubber side down” as in, in contact with the pavement. Asfaik, it’s an old trucking saying. And I say this as a former old USA trucker (Lorry driver in the UK).

yeah you’re right, motorbikers would say ‘shiny side up, rubber side down’ - I just get confused and make my own phrases up

Pssshhh… PUSH it!
That time of the year again, fresh fluid, grease, and seals. Got to keep it running smooove

I once plied Mike Cavanagh, one of Ozone's owners with industrial quantities of booze in the hope of snagging a mates rates price on a new glider. It didn't work, the tight bugger.

Didn't ride much with my e-bike yet, but here's my 2 cents:

Pico do Urubu - Brasil
("Vulture Peak" - Brazil)
