Pic of the Day

[Landy Andy]

We rode “Metal Masher”, a gnarly 4x4 trail near Moab, two years ago.
Mrs levity suggested that we “try it again” this year.

Should I be concerned

Watched some 4x4s doing that run o YouTube earlier this week. It’s a wow track

Another excellent ride out today on a route mapped by @The Hodge. Myself, Neil and Jaco covered 24 mile and almost 3100ft of climbing in Upper Weardale in the North Penines.
The loop from Cowshill to Ireshopeburn took us out and back via the Burnhope Reservoir was a brilliant ride. What a bleak and desolate place this is scattered with the ruins of old lead mines long since worked out. It was cold and windy but a ride I’ll defiantly do again…..thanks to Neil and Jaco for their company and craic and again to Neil for a well earned pint of the black stuff on the way home.
A couple of pics of my two riding buddies almost at the top of the climb out of Cowshill

Decent sundowner with big skies & a bit of Southern comfort up the woods.

 

[Tubby G]

Another easy xc route today starting & finishing at Levisham and taking in some of the Dalby trails. Fun

Another tough but enjoyable ride in the North Pennines ..as The EMF has done an excellent write up I will just add a few more pics ...

Completed the ride well into the last power bar ..and missed out another small off-road climb out of St.Johns Chapel but the ride we did was more than enough with the windy conditions ..

 

[KnollyBro]

Squamish BC. The trail is called Mark My Word. Not a real popular Black tech trail with all of its realtively high consequence features and in my wife's words "Never Again!"

The trail is called In/Out Burger. This picture is from the bottom of the big rock slab. It looks flat. Its not!

Were you out on another cactus hunt?

 

[RustyMTB]

Were you out on another cactus hunt?

I'd be turning my lights on pronto. You wouldn't want to fall in there now, eh?

 

[Juggy1985]

Cannock with my lad. Non ebikes were a rarity on sunday

 

[penguinni]

Helens Bay, Co Down, N Ireland fairly recently.

Tried to beat the rain home but failed. Terrific day out though and the local woods were not as muddy as I expected despite the recent heavy rain.

 

[RustyMTB]

Wow. Look at that sky. Down though, it'll be different in five minutes.

 

[luna87824]

My wife thinks I need to use more sunscreen when I ride my bike...But I think they look pretty good!!

 

[JFDI]

A favourite route of mine.
Starting at Helwith Bridge (another free car park!) Anticlockwise direction towards Littondale. Climb back up and onto the bridleway towards Horton in Ribblesdale.
A quick tea and bun stop at a cafe then head out towards Ribble Head, then turn off up on the Pennie Bridleway.
Great views all around before a thumping descent towards Clapham.
Final offroad section at Wharfe is really worth searching out, a piece of Yorkshire 'slickrock' leads to a snaking section of singletrack wedged between 2 drystone walls, it's brilliant!

Looks like your knackers have dropped down to your knees mate ..nice tan though

Great views all around before a thumping descent towards Clapham.

As an aside, our family tree has my families ancestors (The Foster's) from the 16th through to the 18th century living in and around Clapham, and buried in St James churchyard at the bottom of that descent. Small world. Now in Helmsley... even smaller world.

Clapham is an excellent place as is Helmsley

But how does she feel about your steroid use and the resulting "shrinkage?"

 

[RustyMTB]

Rode twelve miles tonight, only to discover one of the lads is a horsepaedo.

[steve_sordy]

@etoni Enough already! Can't you find any flat boring bits in Switzerland?

 

[Stihldog]

@etoni , What is that large chain for? On the cliff-side.

I'll take a guess at a piece of Via ferrata.
