Full sympathy !
While stopping at the end of a trail section once straddling the bike with both feet on the ground ..both legs cramped fully top of my thighs to the tip of my toes ..I just had to stand statuesque until the pain subsided .
It was a frightening experience ..for not only myself but my two mates ..
I really thought I was going to croak ..thankfully it hasn't repeated itself and hopefully never will..

It's a good job that your battery didn't choose that moment to catch fire! :eek:
 
Beautiful autumn trail riding. Blueberries and lingonberies for after bike food.

Taking the most of the late summer good weather. Had a great run today only about thirty miles away from me this area .. Startied at Gamrie then along to Crovie and ended up in Pennan mix of off road and singletrack road. Lovely places. Local Hero Movie phone box picture is the most taken in Scotland probably. Troup head quite famous for Gannet nesting according to Attenborough. Anyway enjoy the pics , excuse the amount.

Green on green!

That reminded me that My Fair Lady has a song in German „Es grünt so grün, wenn Spaniens Blumen blühen“ (It's so green when Spain's flowers bloom). When checking for the English text I only found its „The Rain in Spain stays in the plain“.

Who says Germans are pessimistic!? 😀😉
 
Just the one crappy photo from yesterday, Doesn't come out in the picture but the trail on the right is so steep, I had no chance of making it with wet leaves covering it. Even the chicken line to the left was only possible with walk mode. Autumn is definitely here.

Was not expecting the level of performance it provides, over the loose bumpy stuff and roots the traction is a huge step up from stock. Love the linear feel and mid stroke a real worth while investment 👌
 
I nearly got a second hand one off pinkbike this week for £160 but decided it would need another £80 for a spring and fitting kit so decided against it.
Glad that it makes a difference though 👍

This reminds me of our shooting range at the edge and entrance to our trail system. It can be unnerving for a new visitor.
The military, police and active members use this shooting range daily, however the range’s days are numbered. I know the general layout and have used the range for archery. ( separate area). A few of the trails are named; Bullet Dodger, Bullet Catcher and Bullet Tooth Tony.

I always hope that the flying lead is aimed at the berm backdrop. Sometimes it sounds like someone is shooting a cannon 😳
